The National Aboriginal Capital Corporation Association (NACCA) and the network of Indigenous Financial Institutions (IFIs) it represents are dedicated to supporting Indigenous entrepreneurs. Recently, we committed to breaking down even more barriers by offering distinctions-based funding for even further marginalized groups such as women and youth.
