In Honor of Indigenous Peoples’ Day

Today is Indigenous Peoples’ Day, a federal holiday to celebrate the original stewards of the present-day United States, and to commemorate their histories and cultures. We are connected to Indigenous people in our hometown of Chicago, which is situated on the lands of the Potawatomi people:

We are committed to partnering with and supporting Indigenous people and nations as they continue to advocate for and maintain sovereignty and self-determination, educational opportunity, economic development, healthcare, cultural preservation and promotion, and more.

Check out how some of our grantees and partners commemorated the day:
