“The Hopi Foundation was founded to bridge the gap between modern and traditional. The question of how a vital, complex, and sophisticated people can maintain not only their values but their own voice and contribution to humankind in the face of encroachment by a dominant and forceful majority culture is an important one. The values of the Hopi people include millennia-old practices concerned with respecting the rights of other people, respect for and protection of the environment, self-determination and an attendant repugnance for government welfare programs, and integration of all aspects of life into a balanced and harmonious way of being.
In our 30-plus years of existence, we have initiated, grown, and housed nearly 20 projects that benefit our Hopi/Tewa communities in the areas of culture, well-being, capacity building, sustainability, farming, historical preservation, and youth development.”
