SPONSORED: Anthony Henry, a citizen of the Tulalip Nation, has turned his lifelong passion for fishing in the Salish Sea into a successful business. With the support of Pacific Northwest Tribal Lending, a Native CDFI, Anthony secured financing to purchase and build his dream commercial fishing boat, the 32-foot Juggernaut. Today, he runs his own operation, fishing for crab and diving for geoduck clams, allowing him to support his growing family and preserve Tribal fishing rights. Anthony’s journey is a testament to the power of community support and perseverance. #NativeBusiness #IndigenousEntrepreneurship #TribalRights #NativeCDFI https://lnkd.in/ecBfjAzQ
