Annual Indian Drive/s

We Are Accepting Donated Items

For Our Spring/Easter Indian Drive

For Many years our donation drives have been to the benefit of Pine Ridge and Rosebud Indian Reservations in South Dakota. Both Reservations are rated the poorest places in the Western Hemisphere next to Haiti according to the Wall Street Journal.
 
However, there are many other nations, reservations, tribes  & clans that have similar living conditions. Therefore, during this year we will began to send donation to numerous other locations where there are individuals and families in need. We are currently planning on expanding our assistance to our people in Oklahoma, Arizona & New Mexico.

 Ridge & Rose Bud Reservation Statistics
(however, numerous other Indian nations, tribes, reservations statistics are simular to these conditions.
 
300% Infant Mortality Rate, highest on this continent.
85% to 95% Unemployment. Median income is $2,600 to $3,500 per year.
Life Expectancy 48 yrs for a Male & 52 yrs for a Female. 59% homes substandard.
Teen Suicide rate 150% higher than national average. School dropout rate 70%.
Over 60% homes have black mold fatal to infants, children & elders.
800% Diabetes & Tuberculosis. Well water contaminated w/ industrial pesticides
60% of homes without water, electricity, adequate insulation, and sewage systems.

No human should have to live under these conditions especially in the USA.

Our Success is only as Good as our Team of Volunteers

We are a grassroots volunteer charity. we strive for 100% of all donations to reach those in need. Our Board, Staff and Volunteers have agreed to accept no salaries for our work with this corporation. Our efforts are to ensure the continual movement of donations and supplies to our fellow Native Americans who are truly in need. Our motive is the sincere desire to serve from the heart, as our ancestors did.

Some of these dedicated volunteers have decades of experience in humanitarian programs, working unselfishly while receiving payments of warm smiles, thank you hugs and heart felt love.

There is no greater satisfaction of the heart then to see the smile on a child’s face when handing them a toy or an elder’s smile upon receiving a warm blanket. There is no greater joy then to serve those who can not serve themselves.
