The funds awarded to the MSTC will be used mainly for the Community History of Former Village Sites in the Nabesna District project. The MSTC was suited best for this project because it showcased more emphasized abilities to undertake programs related to cultural heritage, which is why it was considered as the organization that is best qualified to carry out the project.
The project basically involves the provision of support to the preservation of Upper Ahtna culture and the sustenance of the Ahtna connection to Wrangell-St Elias National Park and Preserve.
This funding opportunity is solely exclusive to the Mount Sanford Tribal Consortium.
