This directory filters funding opportunities whose applicant information includes Indigenous Peoples, including contexts involving First Nations, Inuit, or Métis businesses, entrepreneurs, communities, and organizations. The filter is a starting point: each funder may define Indigenous ownership, control, governance, community mandate, location, and eligible partnerships differently. Review who can apply before assessing project fit. Useful preparation may include ownership or governance records, the project’s community or business purpose, partner roles, a budget, delivery capacity, and measurable outcomes. If an opportunity is too broad or the shortlist is too narrow, refine by project or province, or return to the Canada-wide funding directory.
