Sybil has a very special interview for you today. She had a wonderful conversation with Jim Enote, a Zuni Tribal Member, farmer, and Executive Director of the Colorado Plateau Foundation. In season one, Sybil interviewed him at length twice because his advice is so wonderful for donors who want to give effectively to Indigenous communities. Sybil has profiled some of her favorite parts of Jim's conversation in this episode, and they are here for you today to listen to. 

Episode Highlights:

• Ensure your ideas about what you want to give align with the mission of the organization

• Build your relationship on trust

• Talk with Indigenous communities from a place of opportunity and hope
