As of Monday Afternoon, there are enough promised school supplies and donations that the Okiciyap (we help) Food Pantry and Youth Center should be able to provide needed school supplies to all the children served by the pantry. Thank you to everyone who helped make this incredible wish list a reality.Can we help? Yes We Can !!The children of the Isabel community on the Cheyenne River Reservation have been mightily supported this year by the members of the Daily Kos community. School starts in about a week, and most of their needs have been met by the many kind Kossacks who have donated to Okiciyap. Cindy sent a list of what is still required for back-to school and it is so much shorter than before.
The items still undersupplied are for both the little ones and for the upper-school students. Some are easy to purchase and ship, some are expensive and others are both expensive and heavy to ship. But now, time is of the essence.
