IRS990/Desc0In 2023, Spirit of the Sun partnered with Native American communities in both urban and reservation settings to build resilience and empower Native youth through its Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) AmeriCorps VISTA project. The 4 program initiatives supported Healthy Futures, Capacity Building, and Economic Development focus areas, benefiting over 15,000 individuals across Denver and rural tribal communities. Twelve full-time VISTA members, one VISTA Leader, and 30 Summer Associates contributed to community-driven efforts such as ancestral seed preservation, mentorship, and food sovereignty. These culturally rooted activities strengthened leadership capacity and improved health and economic outcomes for Native communities.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0In 2023, Spirit of the Sun???s Elders??? Foodshare program provided weekly food services to approximately 250 elders aged 60+ and their families. We sourced food through donations, partner farms, and local producers, assembling culturally appropriate, nutritionally complete boxes with produce, grains, eggs, herbs, teas, and meat. These boxes were distributed through a combination of pickup and delivery to ensure consistent access to healthy food. The program has grown significantly by incorporating community feedback and is working toward launching an all-Indigenous produce CSA box.
IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0In 2023, Spirit of the Sun???s Native and Indigenous Youth Mentorship Program hosted bi-monthly events to foster positive, culturally grounded relationships between Indigenous youth and mentors in the Denver-Metro area. The program provided a healing environment where youth could express themselves openly and build trust through shared cultural activities like hikes, crafts, and team sports. By pairing youth with Native mentors, we strengthened cultural identity and leadership development rooted in ancestral knowledge. This initiative empowered youth to become future mentors, ensuring the continuity and Indigenous leadership of the program for generations to come.
