Pine Ridge Reservation is home to the Oglala Sioux Tribe. It is located in southwestern South Dakota and it encompasses the two poorest counties in the United States of America. Housing on the reservation is substandard and often lacks running water and utilities. Residents of Pine Ridge also lack accessible medical care. Diabetes is a major problem on the reservation and the average life expectancy is only 48 years. The reservation is plagued by problems, such as high rates of infant mortality and morbidity, that have been solved in the mainstream society. President Clinton visited Pine Ridge Reservation during his 1999 Econmic Empowerment Tour that highlighted third world living conditions in the United States. Schools and social service programs, such as homeless shelters, foster care facilities, and counseling centers, are in need of school and art supplies for the children on the reservation. It is hard for us to imagine a childhood without crayons, markers, and other basic supplies. Art encourages imagination, creativity, and self expression. A photo that came off the news wires after hurricane Katrina showing a young boy coloring amidst the chaos of shelter life. That is all the proof I need to know that children NEED art in their lives. Your donation will go towards purchasing a selection of age appropriate art supplies (crayons, markers, paper, scissors, fat crayons, glue, sketchbooks, etc) or school supplies (pencils, erasers, notebooks, rulers, folders, etc). The Pine Ridge gift includes no shipping charges. ALL gifts will be sent to Pine Ridge Reservation. Piro and Seraphim will pack all the donated gifts and MegaGear Inc. will assume the cost of shipping them to tribal organizations that will distribute the supplies to the programs and the people who need them most. We hope you will join us in helping send creative and educational tools to young artists and scholars in need.
