Goff Public has been privileged to assist the tribe in this endeavor.

The campaign has helped Native communities achieve important progress by providing grants to nearly 100 tribes and organizations, successfully advocating for an unprecedented number of Native provisions in the federal Farm Bill, launching the first academic conference devoted solely to Native nutrition, and more. Congratulations to the tribe on this impactful campaign!

The SMSC is now focused on its new philanthropic campaign, Understand Native Minnesota, which is dedicated to Native American narrative change in Minnesota’s schools.
