Established in 1975, the Future Generations Foundation (FG Foundation) is Canada’s largest First Nations–led non-governmental funder, dedicated to strengthening the prosperity of First Nations through connection to way of life, language, and culture — now and for future generations. We provide flexible grant funding that supports education, cultural revitalization, healing, and community development across Turtle Island.

As stewards of the residual funds from the Indian Residential School Settlement Agreement (IRSSA), our mission is to ensure these resources are distributed equitably and used to create lasting benefits for First Nations individuals and communities.

We invest in initiatives that advance education, employment training, trades programs, post-secondary studies, and cultural knowledge-sharing, including traditional crafts and land-based learning. We also fund healing and reconciliation projects that address the enduring impacts of the residential school system and strengthen language, culture, and community well-being.

Since assuming stewardship of the IRSSA funds, we have supported over 150,000 Survivors and descendants, distributing more than $130 million to 910 organizations and 10,600+ First Nation and Métis individuals.
