Donations:

Our goal is to fund EVERY eligible application we receive from our member tribal students – with at least a $1,000 scholarship.  In the past, due to a lack of funding, we’ve had to limit either the number or the amount of the scholarships awarded. YOU CAN HELP us reach our goal by making a tax-deductible donation to the Brook Kristovich Memorial Scholarship Program Fund.

To make a donation, just click on one of the buttons below.  Any amount is appreciated, but remember, a $1,000 donation will ensure that one more of our students will be getting the help they need to attend the university, college, or trade school of their choice.

If donating by credit card, just click on the DONATE button and you will be taken to a website where you can enter your credit/debit card information.  If you would rather donate by check, just click on the DONATE BY CHECK button, and you will be taken to a form that you can fill out online (or print and fill out by hand) and mail to NWIHA with your check.  Either way, 100% of your donation will be used to fund our scholarship program.

Congratulations to the 2025 Scholarship Award Recipients
