Capital in Right Relation
We exist to resource the stewards of a livable future.
We channel capital like water, toward the roots of cultural and ecological renewal.
“There are opportunities for philanthropy, policy, and conservation to center Indigenous leadership—supporting regenerative justice rather than continuing old extractive patterns.”
-The Nature Conservancy
Why we do what we do
We founded Studio ‘Iwa to address a structural blind spot in global capital flows.
While billions circulate through large-scale non-profit organizations often shaped by inefficiency and self-preservation, smaller bioculturally rooted projects, many led by Indigenous communities, achieve transformative impact with minimal resources.
With decades of experience in political fundraising and nonprofit strategy, we recognize both a duty and an opportunity: to redirect capital toward life-affirming, Earth-aligned futures. Studio ‘Iwa exists to reallocate wealth and investment toward those who quietly steward cultural, ecological, spiritual, and ancestral regeneration. These are the architects of a livable future.
