  • Principal Chief Richard G. Sneed Richard G. Sneed
    Principal Chief Richard G. Sneed Richard G. Sneed life’s work has been one of public service advocating for youth, community building, and cultural preservation. The son of a businessman and former councilmember, he knows that hard work and a community-centered focus enable collective opportunity. In this vein, he has worked throughout his career to ensure that Cherokee people have equitable access to quality education and can put these skills to work in a community they can be proud of. Having grown up in Wolftown, on the Qualla Boundary, he values being rooted in a community that honors family, culture, and progressive thinking. After graduating from Cherokee High School in 1986, Richard Sneed served in the United States Marine Corp for four years. Father of five children, Breanna, Richie, Mattilynn, Katrina and Samuel, Sneed earned his degree from Universal Technical College in Phoenix, AZ, and holds a North Carolina Teaching License in Industrial Arts. While pastoring the Christ Fellowship Church of Cherokee for fourteen years, Sneed also taught vocational education at Cherokee Central Schools for twelve of those years. Whether teaching students to rebuild an engine, or counseling them through fiscally responsible financial planning, his excellence in the classroom earned him recognition as the National Classroom Teacher of the Year by the National Indian Education Association in 2013. He continues to be a highly sought- after motivational speaker, focusing on youth leadership and empowerment. In 2015, Sneed was called to formalize his commitment to public service and was elected Vice Chief of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians (EBCI).

  • 2018 Annual Report 20 Letter from Russ 1998 Was Quite an Interesting Year
    2018 Annual Report 20 Letter From Russ 1998 was quite an interesting year. The U.S. President was impeached, the Yankees took the World Series, the Un- Years! abomber received a life sentence, “Titanic” became the biggest Hollywood blockbuster of all time, “Seinfeld” came to an end, Frank Sinatra died, and 77-year-old former astronaut and U.S. Senator John Glenn went back into space aboard the Shuttle Discovery. Twenty years later, there’s still plenty of political turmoil to keep our attention, the Yankees are still a perennial power, heinous crime still dominates the headlines, “Titanic” is still in the news (mainly as the standard other films attempt to topple), “Seinfeld” is still on the air, Sinatra’s music is as popular as ever, and while the shuttle program ended, we still dream of reaching for the stars. It seems the more things change, the more they stay the same. 1998 was also the year Sequoyah Fund was born. A group of visionaries formed an organization to help grow small businesses in Cherokee as a way of creating economic opportunity on and around the Qualla Boundary. While we would not become a CDFI (Community Development Finance Institution) until 2007, a young Sequoyah Fund would begin strong and grow fast by making a number of small loans to businesses that would create jobs and grow the economy. Many of the businesses that started over the last twenty years are no longer here. That’s the nature of small busi- ness start-ups. Others have sprung up in their place, providing goods and services to tribal, federal and state governments, the casino, other businesses, locals, and tourists.
