THE LAKOTA PROJECT
Since our inception in 2003, Seven Fires Foundation has been dedicated to helping the Lakota nation on and near the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota.
We continue to send clothing and school supplies all year long. We also help wherever help is needed and are continually raising funds for various endless needs. Over the years we have sent thousands of pounds of much needed items through the mail. We have brought a house for a homeless family, supported in the operations of ceremonial grounds, have helped with utilities, trucks, chainsaws to cut wood for elders, even helped one elder get some teeth! There is always an endless supply of needs and limited resources to fill them. Email us at dir@7fires.org for more information, or donate to the general fund through our donate now button.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
