The Pine Ridge and Cheyenne River Reservations in South Dakota are part of a larger territory established for the Lakota in 1868 by the United States government and later parceled out to non-Native homesteaders and broken up into smaller tribal reservations. Today, Pine Ridge Reservation is home to about 40,000 Native Americans and Cheyenne Reservation about 20,000. According to the US Census Bureau, the reservations lie within the poorest counties in the United States.

YVETTE
Mobile 		F 49 Pastas for soup and or spaghetti/goulash dish. Maybe pasta sauce or tomato sauce. Canned corn and green beans. Yeast, Baking powder, Sugar for home made breads. Corn bread mixes & Cake mixes & frosting for desserts. Plastic ware and paper ware for serving meals. I’m thinking of the children and elders that’ll go without. I’d like to feed them. Contact barbara at bspeer@nativeprogress.org for information. I come to you for a request of donations. I’m concerned for our community since there is no Snap/Food Stamps for November. If I can get enough food items donated I’d like to do a feed once a week. I’m thinking pasta/spaghetti sauce and beef for a pasta dish. Or chicken and vegetables for a soup. I can make homemade breads. Tea or coffee or juice would be great also. I asked the local district but no funds for it they say. So I thought I’d ask her THIS REQUEST CAME FROM HER - SHE IS A VERY CARING PERSON WHO TRIES TO HELP HER COMMUNITY AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
