A Christmas Card Shower for Yurok Elders

 

The Yurok Elders Nutrition Program would love to have Christmas cards from you to distribute out to the elders this year.  Please send them, hand made or store bought, but non-religious, here.

You can send one or many, and you can send them all in one package. Just include whatever greeting you’d like and sign your first name, and if you’d like, the city and state you are in so the elders can see where all the nice cards are coming from! You can just address your envelope like this:

 

To: Yurok Elder

From: First Name (or the [your last name] Family)

 

Via UPS/FedEx this address only:

Ricardo Rojas
Elders Nutrition/XmasCards
190 Klamath Blvd.
Klamath, CA  95548

Via the Post Office, this address only:

Ricardo Rojas
Elders Nutrition/XmasCards
P.O. Box 1027
Klamath, CA  95548

 

Also, if you are a teacher/scout troop leader or are involved with a group of children (or adults) who would like to craft some Christmas cards for the elders, please send as many as you’d like! Or if your kids or grandkids love to craft, bring out the arts & crafts supplies and help them make a card or two for an elder.

Thank you so much for bringing some cheer to the Yurok elders’ lives.

Also, here’s an ongoing food drive for the elders if you’d like to take a look.

Aaron Huey's effort to photograph poverty in America led him to the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, where the struggle of the native Lakota people — appalling, and largely ignored — compelled him to refocus. Five years of work later, his haunting photos intertwine with a shocking history lesson.
