Our mission is to be a multi-cultural and cross- generational community who works and plays together to alleviate conditions of poverty, honor indigenous wisdom and begin to reconcile the tragic history of the Lakota People on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.
About Us:
We are a community of Native Lakota and non-Natives who believe that the wisdom, culture and traditions of the Native people can inform and benefit the Modern World at the same time that the Modern World can empower and support the Lakota in creating more prosperous and humane living conditions on the reservations.
Through a variety of collaborative projects and events, we strive to build alliances and strengthen communities for people both on and off the reservation. Our volunteer groups work alongside the Lakota People on Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, South Dakota to ease conditions of poverty, ride horses together, reconcile the past and learn about one another’s cultures. Additionally, the Lakota People travel to Colorado -and nationally- with the Tipi Raisers to share their wisdom, culture and traditions.
