CIRI leverages its financial strength and diversity to provide benefits to the corporation’s Shareholders and Descendants. CIRI is committed to long-term growth and business opportunities that spur growth, create jobs and ensure that all CIRI stakeholders thrive.
CIRI may consider investment requests but does not provide start-up capital for new businesses. Any investment requests should be well formulated and contain:
• Business concept and its growth potential
• Proposed organizational structure
• Five-year business plan, including financial statements
• Capital structure of the proposed business
• Qualifications of the management team
• Target value of the enterprise at the end of the five-year period
My job is to help build a foundation that provides the profit we need to grow our company for the next 50 years.
Please join me in thanking Robert Harris for his many years of service and welcoming Lisa Huffman to the CIRI Board.
The Yah (Dena’ina for “grow”) Program will prepare CIRI Shareholders and confirmed Descendants to lead at the highest levels of the organization.
The mission of CIRI is to promote the economic and social well-being and Alaska Native heritage of our Shareholders, now and into the future, through prudent stewardship of the company’s resources, while furthering self-sufficiency among CIRI Shareholders and their families.
