2018 Tribal Canoe Journey Cultural Exchange Fund

Cooperation between ATAYAL Organization (USA) and the Tao Foundation (Taiwan) has been established. The ATAYAL Organization (USA) and Bridge Studios (Taiwan) have long created cultural exchange and cooperation opportunities between Taiwanese indigenous people and Native American groups. In the summer of 2018, we want to build upon the success of last year's amazing results, by sending an indigenous delegation to the 2018 Power Paddle to Puyallup. (http://www.paddletopuyallup.org/) We will depart on the 16th of July and meet our Canoe Family on the 18th. "Our Journey" will then start from our joining point and finish in Puyallup on July 28th.

The ATAYAL Organization is working with Taiwan's Indigenous People and the Tao Foundation to send a delegation to Seattle, WA this July to join the 2018 Power Paddle to Puyallup.

We hope to raise fund through The Tao Foundation in Taiwan, ATAYAL in America and also with the help of the Native American Tribes of the Pacific Northwest.

The Tribal Canoe Journey is a yearly event bringing together indigenous people from all over the world to spend up to a month paddling their canoes and learning the ways of their ancestors. This is a wonderful cultural event and we hope to represent Taiwan this year. We will join the Nisqually Canoe Family. Our journey will be about 8 days. This year's final destination is Puyallup, near Seattle, Washington.

Building off the success of last year, we hope to find the funds to bring a 8-member delegation to observe and participate in paddling. Paddling together builds strong bonds. This is a big project and really needs the help of our members, businesses partners, associates and friends to make this come to fruition. Please make a donation on our website and be part of the team.

Your donation will go towards the following:

Your support will allow us to establish this important exchange program.

Goal by July 10, 2018: US$22,000 (NT 660,000)

Funds Raised So Far: US$4,200 (NT 126,000)

Funds Still Needed: US$17,800 (NT 534,000)
