Build Alaska's Future

Strengthening Trust and Empowering Communities

Why We exist

Build Alaska’s Future works to strengthen public trust, activate a thriving workforce, and equip communities for good governance by providing transparent, accessible, and reliable information.

Our flagship initiative, a proprietary interactive GIS mapping portal, enables Alaskans to explore federal funding allocation with over 3,000 projects mapped to date.  

This tool connects infrastructure projects to people and places, humanizing federal funding and fostering transparency and civic engagement. Check out the map below to see billions of dollars in federal infrastructure funding across Alaska!
