It is a community where young people learn, listen, speak, vote, volunteer, ask, and take action to make the world a better place.

Tribal Lands Conservation Program is to help ensure
the well-being of wildlife populations and habitat
both on and off reservation lands, through working
in partnership with tribal and non-tribal governments,
organizations, and activists, while honoring the principles
of tribal sovereignty on which any such partnership
must be based.
Grant Links
Grants.gov allows organizations to electronically
find and apply for more than $400 billion in Federal
grants. Grants.gov is THE single access point for
over 1000 grant programs offered by all Federal grant-making
agencies. The US Department of Health and Human Services
is proud to be the managing partner for Grants.gov,
an initiative that is having an unparalleled impact
on the grant community.
Alaska Funding Exchange, Inc., (AFE) has been providing
fundraising services and consulting to nonprofits
throughout Alaska since 1992. In that time, AFE has
raised well over $30 million to help organizations
do their good work. Our ultimate goal is to
coach each client through the process of fundraising
with the intent of building locally-based capacity.
We accomplish this by offering four types of services:
writing, research, consulting and mentoring.
