The Okini program is in desperate need of help to meet some of the urgent needs of Lakota families and elders. A single mother with no extended family to help called in tears saying she was out of diapers and has no clothing or coats for her three young children starting school. An elder's husband is sick and she is caring for her grandchildren. There are currently 13 people living in her home. The mother of two of the grandchildren is in the military. Grandmother is asking for help with clothing for the children and laundry and hygiene items.
These are only two examples of the immediate needs of the nearly 200 people currently on our Okini list. With school starting in mid August and winter soon to follow your help is crucial.
