The Indigenous Travel Fund provides First Nations and Metis members with the financial means to come to Pemmi-Con! We are trying our best to assist Indigenous people, from anywhere in the world, to come to our convention. We will not gatekeep who is Indigenous and who is not: the Fund is structured in such a way that Indigenous organizations will contact us to request funds for the individuals who they believe should be assisted to travel. There is a cap of $500 CAD per individual, so we can assist as many people as possible.
