Social Impact through Indigenous Enterprise

Social Impact through Indigenous Enterprise

First Nations Worthwhile Ventures (FNWV) exists to empower First Nations Social Enterprises and people that are positively impacting disadvantage in Indigenous communities.

We partner through a pro bono model of community members giving their time and expertise across all areas of business to increase knowledge, to establish sustainable (FNSEs) that amplify social impact.

First Nations people possess the necessary expertise and knowledge to overcome the disadvantages in our communities, but they often lack the necessary business experience. This is due to Indigenous people being unable to fully participate in the economy until recently. By strengthening First Nations Social Enterprises it gives Indigenous people the opportunity to directly impact the disadvantage in their communities. This will play a significant role in achieving true self-determination, especially for the most disadvantaged communities.

Additionally, the interaction of providing expertise and time from the wider community to Indigenous people, helping them gain the knowledge to build strong and viable enterprises, can be a significant contribution to the reconciliation process.

Becoming an integral part of building strong and sustainable First Nations Social Enterprises is where FNWV can have the greatest impact for Indigenous people.

Please join us on this important journey.
