There are only about 150 Native Languages still alive today in the United States, many spoken by a few elders. Without interventions, many of these languages will become extinct within 50 to 100 years. Loss of a language brings a loss of knowledge, culture, and identity and ties to our ancestors. Hear more about the importance of Native languages through our Language is Life campaign from Abi Whiteing (Blackfeet), Director of Native Arts, Language and Knowledge at First Nations. During this special campaign, supporters can double their impact. Thanks to a generous donor, gifts made to the Native Language Immersion Initiative will be matched up to $500,000.
