The Lower Phalen Creek Project, now known as Wakan Tipi Awanyankapi, is a Native-Led, East Side environmental stewardship nonprofit organization based in Saint Paul, MN. Founded in 1997, their mission is to engage people in honoring and caring for natural places, as well as the sacred sites and cultural value within them, with a focus on Dakota values. They work tirelessly with a dedicated board, staff, and community of volunteers to protect and preserve the project area, which stretches from Lake Phalen to the Mississippi River and throughout the East Side River District.
Wakan Tipi Awanyankapi is committed to promoting inclusivity and equal opportunity, as they do not discriminate against any individual based on race, color, creed, religion, age, gender, national origin, disability, ancestry, sexual orientation, familial status, public assistance, local human rights commission activity, or any other discriminatory basis prohibited by state or federal law. Their efforts are driven by a deep respect for the environment and a desire to foster a sense of connection and stewardship among the community.
