The Four Winds Tribe Louisiana Cherokee Confederation is a proud Native American tribe recognized by the State of Louisiana. We are a non-profit 501 (C)(3) organization. Our ancestors inhabited the area known as "No Man's Land". Through our diverse membership, which includes about 7,500 individuals across the USA and beyond, our rich heritage and culture are celebrated.
At Four Winds Tribe Louisiana Cherokee Confederation, we are dedicated to serving our tribal members. Our mission is to provide essential services such as health care, education, and housing to ensure the well-being of our community and educate our Native Youth and the surrounding communities about our Native American history, heritage, and culture.
Our Annual Powwow is a gathering to celebrate our heritage and culture and to share who we are as Native Americans with the communities we live in. It is a time to honor our Native American Veterans and our ancestors.
The education of our Native American youth is vital to the preservation and promotion of our tribe's culture and heritage. The scholarship fund was established to help our youth attain their educational goals. We believe the success of our youth will carry the dreams of our ancestors into the future.
The building fund was established to help us realize our goal of having a permanent location for our Tribal House and Offices. We started out small, holding our Tribal Council meetings and events in or at the homes of some of the early Tribal Members. We have steadily grown and currently lease a building that houses our Tribal House and Offices. We now find ourselves outgrowing this space and we are actively looking for a place to expand and establish our roots.
