The RBA Foundation was established back in 2012 to become involved socially with our communities and to support causes and projects devoted to the well-being of First Nations. As we have been involved with First Nations communities in Quebec since the beginning, our experience allows us to adapt to each of their changing realities. Being partners at the RBA Foundation is supporting over 20 organizations and projects in our communities every year. In the name of the organizations we support, we thank you 802,000 times.
Support First Nations students to undertake and pursue studies by giving out scholarships, athletic or academic scholarships or by providing financial support.
Support the different social and community initiatives focused on improving the living situation and the well-being of people in Aboriginal communities especially the youth, the women, and the seniors.
Support and promote the development and strengthening of awareness, intervention and mobilization programs made by and for Aboriginal people.

Every year, the Foundation supports on average 27 organizations and projects, all devoted to improving the well being of First Nations across Quebec. We maintain a tight-knit relation with four of these organizations as they have become major partners ten years ago.
Founded by First Nations for the benefit of their youth in 2010, the New Pathways Foundation works for the future and the well-being of First Nations youth in Quebec. Its mission is to help young people reach their full potential and be confident in a better future through a strong identity. Whether on or off the community, the New Pathways Foundation creates positive hands-on experiences that reflect First Nations’ youth.
The FNISPAQ is an Aboriginal organization established about 20 years ago. Its mission is to contribute to the well being and balance of the lives of Aboriginal people of Quebec through activities such as community awareness, prevention, and education. The Association brings together front-line workers often isolated and dealing with complex community realities and works to ensure access to psychosocial interventions in the language and the cultural context of each community.
Puamun Meshkenu (Path of a Thousand Dreams) is an organization working to develop the full potential of Indigenous people by promoting the concepts of holistic health, Aboriginal identity and student retention. The organization, founded by Dr. Stanley Vollant in 2016, launches projects that will have lasting impacts on many First Nations children and structuring effects across Aboriginal communities in Quebec.
