Seventh Generation Fund Media Department Produces Organizational Video

Over a decade ago President & CEO Chris Peters started the radio show “Native Pulse” at KHSU 90.5 on the Humboldt State University campus in Arcata, CA. Now years later, the radio show has transferred to a studio in the SGF Media Department and transformed into a multi‐ media approach featuring news and current events of Seventh Generation Fund’s work, it’s Projects and AfQiliates. It now includes a variety of media forms such as publications, short video messages and radio spots.

Seventh Generation Fund’s Media Department has been actively producing video’s, radio spots and leading media training's in many Indigenous communities.

The most recent video, produced under contract, was with the Cheyenne River Youth Project of the Cheyenne River Tribe in Montana. “The SGF Media Department has produced a good amount of positive media on some tough issues in Indian Country, challenging issues like domestic violence and diabetes prevention. Next month, we are starting a meth awareness media campaign video production with the Cheyenne River Lakota Tribe,” said Seventh Generation Fund Media Director, Christopher (Mo) Hollis, after traveling to the Cheyenne River Indian Reservation for a week of Qilming and dialogue.

The Seventh Generation Fund for Indian Development is an Indigenous identity‐based non‐ proQit organization whose mission is dedicated to the self‐ determination of Indigenous Peoples and the sovereignty of our distinct Nations. Founded in 1977 by Native American chiefs, clan‐mothers, scholars, youth, activists and tribal philosophers, Seventh Generation Fund is the Qirst Indigenous Peoples’ initiated and led public foundation. As an intermediary international non‐proQit organization we are uniquely situated to serve Native community initiatives and as a bridge and translator between the Indigenous World, the public sector, and philanthropy.
