🌿 Nestled in Love: Medicine of the Hummingbird
Hummingbird Indigenous Family Services | First Annual Gala
At Hummingbird Indigenous Family Services (HIFS), we believe in a sacred truth: when Indigenous mothers are nurtured and supported, their babies are born into their love, their families grow strong, and their communities thrive.
Our mission is simple yet powerful: to ensure healthy Indigenous babies are born into healthy Indigenous families, supported by healthy Indigenous communities. Every day, we walk alongside Indigenous families through fertility, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and early parenting with deep care, cultural connection, and community-rooted support.
This year, we invite you to celebrate with us at our first annual gala —
Nestled in Love: Medicine of the Hummingbird.
💜 Why “Nestled in Love”?
"Nestled in Love" is more than a theme — it’s a reflection of how we show up for our relatives. It honors the gentle, intentional, and powerful ways we care for our relatives. It represents the softness of a cradleboard, the strength of aunties and uncles, the resilience of parents, and the heartbeat of the community that surrounds every child.
🌺 What is the “Medicine of the Hummingbird”?
The hummingbird teaches us about the medicine of joy, vitality, and fierce tenderness. In our work, this medicine lives in every baby born, every parent seen and supported, and every system we work to change.
At the gala, we will center the voices and experiences of our relatives — the families we serve — through a powerful Indigenous fashion show where they will walk the runway in designs created by Indigenous artists. These aren’t just models. They are storytellers, parents, protectors, survivors, and future-builders.
Through their presence and their stories, we will share the impact of our work — the real medicine of the hummingbird.
✨ What You’ll Experience
A beautiful evening of storytelling, celebration, and community
A fashion show featuring Indigenous designers and the families we serve
An opportunity to give at various levels: sponsorships, donations, and live gifts
Connection to a movement rooted in love, culture, and healing
🌱 Join Us
By attending or supporting Nestled in Love: Medicine of the Hummingbird, you’re not just buying a ticket — you’re helping to build a future where every Indigenous baby is welcomed with love, every Mother is supported, every family is held with care, and every community has the resources to thrive.
Let’s celebrate the beauty of our people, the strength of our families, and the sacredness of every new beginning.
