First Peoples Worldwide’s Keepers of the Earth Fund is making a huge difference in Indigenous communities around the globe. In our first year of regranting, First Peoples has been able to fund projects in fifteen countries spanning across four continents and touching over 35 Indigenous communities. First Peoples Worldwide was founded in 1997 following Rebecca Adamson’s visit to meet with Indigenous San communities in Botswana. This trip would serve as a catalyst for founding the Keepers of the Earth Fund. A decade after first conceptualizing it, the Keepers of the Earth Fund, was launched and has become not only a reality, but a success!
