“We started The Skydancer Project to connect with and support indigenous communities around the world. We wanted to make a difference on a global scale, and our aim was to do this through supporting grassroots organisations that we felt were doing important work. As a band in the digital age, there are a lot of resources available at our fingertips, particularly with the internet and the accessibility it allows. We wanted to release new music in an unprecedented way and with the help of our team and non-profit partners we were able pull it all off. What we've achieved with the Skydancer Project is perfect synergy, with everyone involved benefitting mutually. We got to release our new song, the fans got new music and we were able to raise awareness and much needed funds for important and worthy causes. A massive thank you to everyone involved!" - INHEARTSWAKE “Greetings from Nakuru, Kenya. Today we got a generous donation from In Hearts Wake. We would like to thank the band and everybody involved in The Skydancer Project. We are very grateful for this support. The funds donated will be used here on our Kenya Community project.” – Rico Huntjens, Hardcore Help Foundation “Seventh Generation Fund for Indigenous Peoples is honored to have partnered with the band In Hearts Wake and their label, UNFD, in The Skydancer Project. This exemplary Project has raised the awareness of Indigenous issues and generously assisted already existing efforts in support of the right to self-determined futures for Indigenous Peoples. We deeply appreciate our involvement with the Project and the band's creative collaboration in support of such worthwhile causes.” - Heather Freitas, Seventh Generation Fund for Indigenous Peoples
