Lending a helping hand to our neighbors on Pine Ridge Reservation

A Shoes and Clothing Drive for Lakota House Fire Victims

 

 

A house fire occurred a few days ago on Pine Ridge Rez, leaving the three families that lived there with nothing but what they were wearing. Many of the children in the families attend American Horse School. The Principal has reached out for help with shoes and clothing for the kids and adults. Please take a look at their wishlist below and let me know what you can send so I can update the tally here. The Principal will distribute the donated items to the families as soon as they arrive. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity in this time of dire need.
