🦋Native Women are the BACKBONE of our communities.
Everything we do begins with this truth. On #GivingTuesday, we invite you to uplift Native women entrepreneurs whose visions uplift nations. https://f.mtr.cool/fdvrazqeai
Achieving equity, economic security, and safety for Native women involves heeding the voices and leadership of Native communities, respecting their sovereignty, and ensuring that communities have the resources they need to thrive.
