Additional Information of Eligibility:
Participation is limited to federally recognized Tribal governments listed in the current Federal Register Notice of Indian Entities Recognized and Eligible to Receive Services from the United States Bureau of Indian Affairs.
This is the official listing of all federally recognized Tribes in the United States pursuant to Section 104 of the Federally Recognized Indian Tribe List Act of 1994 (Pub.
L.
103-454; 108 Stat.
4791-4792).
The most recent Notice was published in the Federal Register, 86 FR 7554 (January 29, 2021) and was corrected in the Federal Register, 86 FR 86 18552 (April 9, 2021).
Tribal organizations and other entities may participate as sub-grantees or contractors to federally recognized Tribes.
This information is available here under the heading Tribal Leaders Directory.
Applicant Tribes must bring all administrative and fiscal reporting for open TWG Program grants up to date in order to be eligible to apply for new funds.
Applicants will be notified within five business days upon receiving proposals noting any outstanding reporting issues that need to be addressed.
Tribes will then have thirty days to bring these grants into compliance.
Proposals from Tribes that have not brought past due reports (e.g., interim or final performance reports, or interim or final financial status reports) up to date in this 30-day period will be found ineligible and excluded from further consideration in the FY 2022 TWG Program cycle.
When an applicant is carrying two or more active TWG projects while applying for another, the Service has an administrative obligation to verify that there are no correctable problems in implementing the existing awards.
We will review the reasons why those grants are still open before proceeding with further consideration.
Tribes that demonstrate their effective use of TWG Program funds will not be affected.
Tribes that have taken no significant action on any one of their two or more preexisting awards will not be considered eligible to apply for new TWG Program funds until the problem is resolved.
Possible resolutions might be for the Tribe to demonstrate progress in the agreed-upon activities of an inactive grant, demonstrate that the assertion of “no action” is incorrect, or the Tribe may cancel the grant so that the obligated funds may be recovered and made available to other Tribes in the next grant cycle.

Keeping Half the Profits Beats Non-profits for Social Impact
Melbourne social enterprise Who Gives A Crap sold nearly 3 million rolls of toilet paper in 2014/15 and gave half the proceeds to WaterAid Australia, but co-founder Simon Griffiths says the donation would have been less had the startup adopted a non-profit model when it launched two years ago.
