Our Land.
Our Culture.
Our Future.
For generations, the Igyararmiut have protected and lived with the land. The Kuicaak Fund ensures that our future generations can do the same—by reuniting our lands, revitalizing our culture, and stewarding our waters and wildlife.
Invest in Indigenous Stewardship
The Kuicaak Fund is a community-led initiative dedicated to securing land, revitalizing culture, and protecting our environment for future generations. The Igyararmiut are working to reunite with what was taken, protect what remains, and strengthen what sustains us. This fund enables swift action when opportunities arise—from purchasing land to funding cultural programs to restoring the ecosystem.
