Santa Fe Indian School

is fundraising for a

Youth Cultural Exchange

About the exchange

The exchange is a continuation of an exchange program that Santa Fe Indian School (SFIS) had with The Children's Village (TCV) in the mid-1990s. It was suggested by His Holiness the Dalai Lama -- as he felt Native people and Tibetans were very similar -- he even remarked how he felt like he was home during his visit to Santa Fe and the Santa Fe Indian School.

SFIS is recommencing the exchange in light of how similar native issues are with Indigenous people around the world in trying to maintain native unique cultures and languages in the face of globalism.

Students will use the experience as part of their Senior Honors Project - particularly in the application of the United Nation's (UN) Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). UNDRIP advocates the rights of Indigenous people to self-determination, maintenance of cultures and languages and self-rule.

How your contribution helps

Contributions will help for the cost of passports and travel visas.

You can also send a donation by check payable to:
