Annual Report 2023

Our 2023 Annual Report centers on our traditional value of sharing. You will see and hear many people sharing, respecting and fostering resilience and self-reliance with all our relations just as they have all year. Community recipients, volunteers, partners and members of IPRF’s team are all essential to the work of IPRF by sharing themselves, not for themselves, but for holding up community first while increasing our collective understanding of our tradition of giving back, shifting power, and capital to community. Their time, stories and experiences ensure we remain centred around the fact that communities know what communities need. We are grateful for the unique perspectives that each person brings to how we collectively support Indigenous Peoples.

Annual Report 2022

From June 2020 through to December 2022, Indigenous Peoples Resilience Fund's (IPRF) purpose was to enhance the resilience of Indigenous communities and organizations responding to the urgent needs brought on by the unknown and critical challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In 2022, IPRF went through ten rounds of application call-outs. IPRF’s commitment to uplifting applicants remained a high priority. IPRF’s community was invited to our Winter Solstice gathering at the end of the year in the presence of the Governor General of Canada, her Excellency, Mary Simon, as the guest speaker. Participants shared their voices and stories, and through these sharings, we heard that our high-touch, and personal approach was appreciated.

The stories in this year's Annual Report will offer a glimpse of the diversity of Indigenous Peoples in Canada. IPRF has the privilege to uplift and
share these stories with you and recognizes that all stories are meaningful. Unfortunately, we cannot share them all, though we wish we could.
