Well I have to whole heartly agree with rebel on this, I share the same viewpoint as she does.\nI just looked at my birth certificate and no where on it has my heritage listed.\n\nRebel is right, being native is not something you just decide to do, it's being born into a life of struggles and poverty, however if you are doing it for the wrong reasons like you think your daughter is gonna get a free check or some land your continuing the cycle of stereotypes and oppression and you daughter will learn that from you.

There are grants for being Native American -- if you are an American Indian entrepreneur "located in disadvantaged and under-served Indian reservations and tribal areas within the U.S." \n\nGrant # 59.052 Native American Economic Development Assistance aims to "fund economic development projects that will provide small business opportunities and empower American Indians, Native Alaskans and Native Hawaiian entrepreneurs located in disadvantaged and under-served Indian reservations and tribal areas within the U.S."\n\nTo apply for this grant, go to Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov . They have everything you need to apply for grants. \n\nThe first step is to register with Grants.gov and their registration process\n\n1. Get a Data Universal Number System (DUNS) Number\n2. Register with Central Contractor Registry (CCR)\n3. Authorize your Organization's Representatives\n4. Login as an E-Business Point of Contact (POC)\n\nYou will first be asked to find the grant number of the grant that you wish to apply for (in this instance #59.052). See if you would qualify for this grant. Remember though that you must be in a disadvantaged and under-served Indian reservations and tribal areas to qualify \n\nNote though that it is normally hard to find grants to start a business -- even for females and minorities. Unlike the myths that some perpetuate, federal government and even private foundations hardly give grant money for a for-profit business. And yes, grants mean PAPERWORK - lots and lots of it, that is why a cottage industry of grant writers was born.\n\nNonetheless, you can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support a for-profit venture.\n\nEven if you buy books on "how to get grants" or list that supposedly has information on grants -- all of them are mere rehash of what CFDA has, albeit packaged differently. But still the info is the same - hardly any grants for starting a for profit business.\n\nEven SBA does NOT give out grants. From the SBA website http://www.sba.gov/expanding/grants.html\n\n"The U.S. Small Business Administration does not offer grants to start or expand small businesses, although it does offer a wide variety of loan programs. (See http://www.sba.gov/financing for more information) While SBA does offer some grant programs, these are generally designed to expand and enhance organizations that provide small business management, technical, or financial assistance. These grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments."\n\nMost of the federal grants are given to specific target groups with specific requirements (e.g. minority business owners involved in transportation related contracts emanating from DOT - Grant#20.905 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises Short Term Lending Program \n\nGrants are also often given to non profit groups or organizations involved in training or other similar activities (grant 59.043 Women's Business Ownership Assistance that are given to those who will create women's business center that will train women entrepreneurs \n\nFor private grants, you may want to check the Foundation Center's Foundation Grants for Individuals Online. It's a subscription based website ($9.95 per month) but their opening blurb only says that the database is ideal for "students, artists, academic researchers, libraries and financial aid offices." Entrepreneurs are apparently not one of them, so I take it they also don't have listings of private foundations who give grants to would-be entrepreneurs.

Why in the world would you want to?  Most reservations are pretty much ghettoes.\n\nDifferent tribes have different rules about what constitutes American Indian.  The Cherokee Nation, for example, allows you to join if you can document that you are at least 1/16 Cherokee.  (I am 1/8, but I have not joined.)

To become a registered member of a Native tribe is a long and difficult process.  You have to prove with birth records or other court records that you are a real Native and show your ancestral lineage.  I am a registered member of the Chickahominy Native tribe of Eastern Virginia and it does not offer you any benefits, you do not get any special privileges because you are formally acknowledge as a member.\n\nSome tribes are more strict than others, where you have to bring in you parents and grandparents (if still alive) and lay out a family tree where they will then do a serious check on every person in your tree.\n\nIf you are further than 3 generations from having one FULL Native grandparent, I would say don't waist your time going through the process.  You will always know in your heart that you have some Native blood, but that's the extent of it.  If you don't practice any of your tribes Native traditions or rituals I would also say let it go.\n\nAlso on a side note, 75% of African-Americans have Native American Ancestry, but they have not registered because it is hard to prove without formal court or birth documents and it doesn't entitled them to anything.\n\nHope this information helps.\n\nAlso as someone said, DNA results are unreliable and negligible and wont get you membership.  Anyone can have traces of Native Blood.  75% of African-Americans do.

I am assuming you are talking about being an American Indian.\n\nIf so, the US government has a number of incentives in place to encourage members from this community to go to school, get a degree, and even start their own small business.
