Moenkopi Developers Corporation (MDC) is a non-profit organization dedicated to economic development for the Upper Village of Moenkopi, located in the Hopi Tribe in Arizona. With a mission to create jobs for the Hopi people and generate revenue for the Upper Village government, MDC has successfully completed several economic development projects, including the construction of the Moenkopi Legacy Inn Suites, the first hotel built on Hopi land in over 50 years, and the establishment of the Hopi Arts Trail, a cooperative marketing effort for galleries, artists, and guides in Hopi villages across the reservation.
Through their efforts, MDC has achieved a $25 million capital investment, created over 125 jobs, and received recognition from Arizona State Governor Jan Brewer for their contribution to building economic opportunities for the Hopi community. By reinvesting every dollar back into the community, MDC aims to preserve the Hopi culture, language, religion, and family by continuing to develop and create more jobs and quality housing on Hopi land.
