BLACKFEET TRIBE STATE OF EMERGENCY!
We need food in Blackfeet Nation.
Blackfeet Nourish has been providing food for the Medicine Bear Shelter and Blackfeet Food Bank for more than six years. The month of February has been grueling. Blackfeet [Nation reservation] has been hit by blizzard after blizzard with hurricane-force winds. Many people around Blackfeet Nation are both trapped in their homes and trapped out of their homes, in shelters, and other people’s homes.
100% of the donations will go to food for the Blackfeet Nation and dispersed [by] the shelter and as directed by Blackfeet Tribe’s Incident Command Center.
Go to: http://nourishtheflathead.org/donate/ and please indicate “Blackfeet Nourish” in the message line
If you can’t donate, PLEASE signal boost! Niisiniyitaki!
This is for the members of the Blackfoot nation that live on the US side of the border, but they are nevertheless from the nation that we serve at my school on the Canadian side.
I’ll be passing this info along to our FMNI liaison, but I figured I’d share it here too in case anyone has any cash they could spare. Every little bit goes a long way; even a dollar or two can make a difference because it adds up (e.g. if every follower of mine donated a dollar the donations might not seem much individually, but it would add up to over $500, which can go a long way).
