In 2023, we celebrate a decade of profound impact through the Protecting the Sacred funding program, a journey made possible by your unwavering support and belief in the transformative power of Indigenous wisdom. Since its inception in 2012, this initiative has been dedicated to fortifying Indigenous communities worldwide, uplifting their cultural practices, language, ceremony, sacred teachings, and lifeways.

Thanks to your generous contributions and commitment to amplifying Indigenous voices and perspectives:

This includes Wisdom Treasure Award recipients, Seeds of Trust and Fund for the Ancestors partners!

Your impact is truly remarkable, and for that, we extend our deepest gratitude.

To witness firsthand the profound changes your investments have brought about, we invite you to explore our Voices of the Indigenous: Mexico video series on our YouTube page. In this series, our Community Partners share their experiences and highlight the meaningful transformations made possible by your support.

Yet, our collective journey continues.

The Indigenous worldview, centered on community, balance, and connection, remains more crucial than ever. Recognizing our interconnectedness with the living world is essential for our survival.

Together, hand in hand, heart to heart, shoulder to shoulder, we can continue to make a difference.

Thank you for your open heart, your clear vision, and steadfast partnership.

As we step into the new year, may it be filled with health, vibrancy, and wonder for you and your loved ones.

In solidarity and with humility,

The Seeds of Wisdom Team
