Tanka Fund, ranchers, and industry partners represent at HEFN Annual Meeting
The Tanka Fund team — alongside rancher partners Alex Romero-Frederick and Wayne Frederick, Virgil Two Eagle, Sr., and partner Chad Kremer of Kremer Buffalo — recently attended and spoke at the Health and Environmental Funders Network (HEFN) Annual Meeting in Rapid City, SD.
HEFN is a philanthropy-serving organization focused on advancing environmental health and justice by connecting funders, strengthening collaboration, and accelerating solutions for communities most impacted. Since its founding in 1999, the network has grown into a national hub for learning, partnership, and coordinated investment — supporting efforts from community response to environmental challenges to long-term funding strategies that drive meaningful change.
