Research: Native American Federal Funding, Tribes Eligible Archives 04


First Americans Often Last Americans for Federal Funding

Federal Funding Information for Tribal Nations & Native American Nonprofits:
Tribal Nations Eligible, Grants Notices Archives 04
Tribal Nations Not Listed As Eligible, Grants Notices Archives 04


ThreeHoops note: Many grants opportunities are listed below. Unless one looks at the total amount of funding available, against the total possible grant recipients, an unclear picture can be given by these listings. 

Example: In April 04, A Department of Interior, Tribal Landowner Incentive Program grant is available to an expected 25 grant recipients nationwide.  There are at least 562 federally recognized Tribal Nations in the United States.  Therefore this 'set aside' for Tribal Nations will leave more than 95% of all Tribal Nations unfunded if all grants are awarded to 25 distinct Tribal Nation entities as projected in the federal Grants Notice.

Example: One grant listed under Deadline Apr 30 provides a total of $100,000, with grant ceilings of $50,000, for the entire eligible grantseeking population, including competing states, cities, counties, universities, nonnative nonprofits and Tribal Nations.  Tribal Nations applying for grants structured in this manner face daunting odds in obtaining federal funding that appears 'available' to them. This sort of difficult dynamic appears in some federal agencies, and may contribute to the chronic poverty rate experienced by Native American people in the United States.

ThreeHoops note: Many grants opportunities are listed above. Unless one looks at the total amount of funding available, against the total possible grant recipients, an unclear picture can be given by these listings. 

Example: In April 04, A Dept of Interior, Tribal Landowner Incentive Program grant is available to an expected 25 grant recipients nationwide.  There are 562 federally recognized Tribal Nations in the United States.  Therefore this 'set aside' for Tribal Nations will leave more than 95% of all Tribal Nations unfunded if all grants are awarded to 25 distinct Tribal Nation entities as projected in the federal Grants Notice.
