On March 15, 2005, The Chiefs of the Mi’kmaw Kina’matnewey Participating Communities gathered at the Membertou Convention Centre to sign a new five year funding agreement which will allow for the flow of approximately $145 Million over the next five year. The funding is to provide for programming for K4 – 12, Post-Secondary student support, support funding, capital, and governance. The first funding Agreement was signed on February 14, 1998.
