Support the revitalization of Indigenous and endangered languages worldwide!

We're raising funds to launch 20 language revitalization projects, as part of ELP's Ready to Revitalize program.

More than half of all languages on earth are in danger of being silenced by the end of this century - and most of these are Indigenous languages. But communities around the world are working to revitalize and sustain their languages. Language revitalization is about more than words: it has a direct impact on Indigenous communities’ health and well-being, identity and culture, and human rights. And you can be part of this work.

Ready to Revitalize is a unique online project-based course for grassroots language champions around the world. Participants receive expert guidance, peer connections, hands-on learning opportunities, and mini-grants to support their community language revitalization projects. And we need your help! We need to raise $15,000 to fund Ready to Revitalize 2026.

It only takes $500 USD to sponsor a language champion and fund their initiative. In most parts of the world, there’s little or no financial support for Indigenous languages. For our community partners in places like Sierra Leone, Papua New Guinea, and Guyana, $500 USD makes a transformational impact on grassroots language revitalization initiatives.

Your tax-deductible donation will go a long way, whether it’s $5 or $500. We’re so grateful to all of you for supporting the revitalization of Indigenous and endangered languages, and helping build a world where all language communities can thrive.
