Reweaving Wealth: Decolonizing Planned Giving and Strengthening Indigenous-Led Futures
Presenter: Emily Cabrera, Executive Director, RAVEN
This session invites planned-giving professionals to explore how colonial histories, cultural worldviews, and personal experiences shape donor relationships to money and legacy. Drawing from her work at RAVEN and Iikaa Philanthropy, Emily Cabrera highlights how Indigenous communities understand wealth through reciprocity, kinship, and responsibility to future generations. The session shares how Indigenous-led organizations are building impactful planned-giving strategies and why these approaches matter for Canada’s philanthropic future. Participants will learn practical steps we can each take to uplift Indigenous-led planned giving and support long-term systems change.
