Indigenous Community Enterprise

Indigenous Community Enterprise’s mission is to work directly with Indigenous communities to identify economic opportunities that foster responsible stewardship of the land and enhance self-reliance. Funds support an ongoing Straw Bale Project to design and build culturally appropriate homes, and a newly launched Native Food Project, to revitalize and promote traditional local food systems. 2010 funds will support ICE's work with the National Forest, using small diameter ponderosa logs to make traditional hogans for Navajo elders and is planning to expand this program to include young Navajo families.
