3 COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP In 2021, Native Northwest established the Native Northwest Reconciliation Fund as a way to work with our customers and community partners to advance Reconciliation of the historic wrongs committed against Indigenous peoples. The Native Northwest Reconciliation Fund supports people and families who continue to be impacted by Residential Schools and intergenerational trauma. Its purpose is to advance Reconciliation by funding initiatives that support Indigenous wellness, learning, and culture. Native Northwest has funded 250+ scholarships and awards at 20 partner colleges and universities.

Through the Native Northwest Reconciliation Fund, she was able to buy a new one. It's the Indigenous Education student at UBC who was struggling to put food on the table or pay for health insurance while studying. The Native Northwest Reconciliation Fund was able to assist. It's the nursing student at Vancouver Island University who can finish his degree sooner in order to provide better healthcare to remote Indigenous communities.
