Who We Are
Seven Fires Foundation is simply a means for people to reach out together and help other people!
In 2003 a group of caring individuals united together to help children and elders wherever there was a need. That quest led us to some of the most impoverished areas right here in the United States, our reservations. For 10 years we have assisted with basic needs like clothing, shelter and food. Our vision includes providing hope through the preservation of culture and tradition. And now we expand that vision to include empowering others through the revival ofteaching natural building techniques to illuminate the possibilities for everyone to live in a healthy, affordable home.
