ATNI-EDC - Philanthropy - Native Giving of expanding formal giving by native americans is to building, and the formation ofnative run foundations common ground for the west coast foundation community http://www.atniedc.com/philanthropy/native-giving.htm
Extractions: Native American Philanthropy - Wealth, Poverty, and the Tradition of Giving The story of Native American entry into formal philanthropy is a story of wealth, poverty, and a long history of giving and sharing. In the beginning, Native Americans inhabited lands that would generate untold wealth for the Astors, and Carnegies, Fords and Rockefellers. Native Americans, then and now measured wealth not in terms of money; they prefer to measure wealth in terms of community standing of an individual, which derives from living an honorable and community centered life. Some Native American ventures, such as First Nations Development Institute's Eagle Staff Fund, the Seventh Generation Fund or the Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians Economic Development Corporation combine entrepreurship with philanthropy. Based on ancient traditions of sharing and caring, and drawing on state of the art technology and management practices, these organizations and other capital sources, such as American Indian Banks, are stimulating Native business activity. As businesses and Tribal enterprises produce jobs and profits, owners and employees are beginning to make use of savings and retirement plans to finally help Native Americans become stewards of their own wealth. Gaming has long been an important enterprise in the Native American experience. More than 200 Tribes have operated gaming facilities, which generated more than $6 billion in gross income in 1997, yet only a small percentage of these Tribes have realized significant profits. These profitable Tribes tend to be small Tribes located near large urban and commercial centers, however only one Tribe in 10 produces significant revenue from gaming. The greatest benefit of Tribal gaming has been in job creation in rural high unemployment areas: more than 120,000 direct jobs and 160,000 indirect jobs have been created nationwide.

U.S. data: There were 31,204 deaths by suicide recorded in 1995; 30,535 in 1997. The actual number is probably significantly higher, because many suicides are recorded as accidents.

Extractions: illustration) Many Americans realize that the expedition of Lewis and Clark was, for the most part, a journey over water. And indeed, this great story of opening the American West takes place on or near important rivers. After all, Lewis and Clark were searching for a Northwest Passage, believing a great myth of a water route to the West Coast. But what most Americans don't know is that nearly 200 years ago, when Meriwether Lewis and William Clark set out on the first successful exploration of the American West and Pacific Northwest, they did so as Army officers. Few realize that Capt. Lewis and Capt. Clark headed into the great wilderness as an Army unit, with three sergeants, one corporal, and 31 privates. Some historians believe that Army discipline was a key factor in helping the expedition succeed where three previous exploration attempts had failed.

The Librarys collections of books published in the British colonies of America before this time fall into our Early Printed Collections The British Library has one of the richest collections of American printed books outside of the United States. The collections cover all the humanities and social sciences disciplines and are particularly strong in material published by American university presses, learned societies, museums and research libraries. The Library also holds substantial collections of imaginative literature including material published by small and experimental presses, and little magazines. Many of the significant gaps in the collections from the period 1880-1950 have been filled through a large-scale microfilming programme, sponsored by the American Trust for the British Library. The collections contain an extensive range of both primary and secondary materials published in the United States relating to American history. These include many rare American gazetteers, almanacs and annuals; travel writing; accounts of the exploration of North America; early descriptions of the topography of the country; contact with Native Americans, and later works on the growth of American cities and society. There is a good selection of contemporary and first-hand accounts of significant events in American history such as the settlement of the West, the Civil War, the Gold Rush, and an extensive range of material relating to United States regional history, such as local and county histories and publications by American state historical societies.
