About NATOA
NATOA is a charity organization, and is committed to providing Indigenous Peoples of Canada with the resources and information that will help them efficiently create, manage, and operate trusts as a means to ensure the seven generations yet unborn, can benefit from the goals and dreams of the present generation.
NATOA’s goal is to be a highly professional and relevant resource for Indigenous Peoples in becoming self-sustaining and vital economic communities.
Our Mandate
The Board of Directors of NATOA are committed to ensuring that the best possible information on areas relevant to Trusts, such as investing, Trust structures; accounting, tax, management, administration, and legal issues is available through an internet-based research library website and national/regional workshops.
As more and more Indigenous governments, organizations, and communities establish trusts to hold and manage the funds obtained from their claims (land claims, treaty land entitlement, hydro claims) or business activities, it is critical to ensure these funds are prudently and responsibly managed and that structures are in place to reflect the particular aspirations and objectives of an individual community.
NATOA’s commitment to strengthening Indigenous communities and their ability to meet their own member needs and desires through financial opportunities utilizing trust funds and investing principles that are consistent with Indigenous Cultural traditions and values generally and those of individual communities specifically. Advancing the goals and opportunities of Indigenous women and youth is vital to the capacity and future success of our Trusts and communities.
Our Members
Committees of Members
NATOA has developed several committees of members to meet the needs of the entire membership. The Committees that are currently operating and/or forming are:
Responsible Investment Committee
The Responsible Investment Committee will oversee and report on any and all partnerships that includes the current partnership with Share Canada in delivering the Reconciliation and Responsible Investment Project.
Education Committee
The Education Committee will work with an accredited educational institution to provide and develop an on-line program related to Aboriginal Trusts that will be available to members and non-members.
Advisory Committee
The Advisory Committee’s mandate is to ensure the Board has access to high quality technical expertise in all matters that affect IndigenousTrusts and Investment portfolios, as well as the management of the Association.
