Give Shuumi

Shuumi means “gift” in the Chochenyo language.

The Shuumi Land Tax is a voluntary annual financial contribution that allows non-Indigenous residents to directly support the rematriation of the land.

The Shuumi Land Tax supports Sogorea Te’s work to acquire and preserve land, to rebuild urban gardens, community centers, and sacred burial sites so that future generations of Indigenous people can thrive in the Bay Area.

When we give Shuumi, we also practice teshuvah, the Jewish practice of relational repair.
