    NARF is a nonprofit organization governed by a board of directors composed of thirteen Native Americans from tribes throughout the country and with a variety of expertise in Native American matters.

    Early in NARF’s existence, these directors identified five priority areas for the organization:

    • Preserve tribal existence

    • Protect tribal natural resources

    • Promote Native American human rights

    • Hold governments accountable to Native Americans

    • Develop Indian law and educate the public about Indian rights, laws, and issues

    Since 1970, NARF has successfully asserted and defended some of the most important rights of Native Americans and tribes in hundreds of major cases in critical areas such as tribal sovereignty, treaty rights, natural resource protection, voting rights, and Indian education.

    NARF continues to engage in high-impact legal actions and projects that move us towards a world where Native Americans thrive as their rights, resources, and lifeways are intact and protected; promises made to them are upheld; and they exercise their sovereign right to manage their own affairs while tribes exercise their sovereign right to manage their own affairs as governments.

  • -October 2023 Featured Fundraiser-

    More than 150 years ago, the Navajo and many other tribes signed treaties with the federal government giving up their land in exchange for funding of things like housing, infrastructure and health care. But for decades that hasn't happened.

    In 2018, DigDeep opened new project offices in Navajo Mountain, UT and Dilkon, AZ as they continue expanding across the Navajo Nation.

    The Navajo Water Project is Indigenous-led, and registered as an official enterprise on the Navajo Nation.

    DigDeep’s work creates meaningful, high-paying jobs, many with benefits like 100% employer-paid health coverage.

    Many Navajo people worry that they will never get running water. But when they hear about DigDeep, they know there is hope.

    30% of Navajo families still don't have a sink or a toilet.

    So DigDeep brings clean, hot and cold running water to families across New Mexico, Utah and Arizona.

    • More than 2 million people in America live without running water or plumbing.

    • About 30% of Navajo families haul water home every day.

    • Navajo households pay 67x more for the water they haul vs. piped water.

    The Navajo Water Project is a community-managed utility alternative that brings hot and cold running water to homes without access to water or sewer lines. DigDeep does this primarily by installing their off-grid Home Water Systems, but their impact doesn’t stop there.

    They’re also investing in more effective septic systems, skilled job creation, and even making grants to individuals and communities stepping up to solve their own water challenges through the Water is Life Fund.

  • -April 2023 Featured Fundraiser-

    The Trevor Project is the world’s largest suicide prevention and mental health organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and questioning (LGBTQ) young people.

    The Trevor Project’s Mission

    “To end suicide among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer & questioning young people.”

    The Trevor Project’s Vision

    “A world where all LGBTQ young people see a bright future for themselves.”

    Top-Line Statistics:

    • LGBTQ youth are more than four times as likely to attempt suicide than their peers (Johns et al., 2019; Johns et al., 2020).

    • The Trevor Project estimates that more than 1.8 million LGBTQ youth (13-24) seriously consider suicide each year in the U.S. — and at least one attempts suicide every 45 seconds.

    • The Trevor Project’s 2022 National Survey on LGBTQ Youth Mental Health found that 45% of LGBTQ youth seriously considered attempting suicide in the past year, including more than half of transgender and nonbinary youth.

    Social Support and Acceptance Statistics:

    • Having at least one accepting adult can reduce the risk of a suicide attempt among LGBTQ young people by 40 percent.

    • LGBTQ youth who live in a community that is accepting of LGBTQ people reported much lower rates of attempting suicide than those who do not.

    The Trevor Project offers five key programs:

    • Crisis Services

      Direct suicide prevention and crisis intervention services to support via phone, text, and chat.

    • Peer Support

      The world’s largest, safe-space social networking community.

    • Research

      Evaluations that significantly improve their services and field.

    • Public Education

      Educating around issues relevant to LGBTQ youth and allies.

    • Advocacy

      Fighting for policies and laws that protect LGBTQ youth.
