OUR SUPPORTERS
Our successes are due in large part to our esteemed partners,
sponsors and community contributors!
On April 3, 2005, Minister of Community, Aboriginal
and Women’s
Services Murray Coell announced a provincial government
contribution of $250,000 from the 2004-2005 budget to support
the work
of First Peoples Cultural Foundation in the delivery of
language archiving services at FirstVoices.com. The new funding
will
enable FPCF to provide ongoing services to the existing
language groups using FirstVoices.com, and in addition will
provide
for training, access and support for new language groups
wishing to use the state-of-the-art FirstVoices language
resources.
