2003 PROJECT AND MEETING SCHEDULE
Tribal Wisdom Foundation's 2003 Project involves collecting donations for The Braveheart Center located on the Yankton Sioux Reservation in South Dakota. The Braveheart Center provides traditional Lakota cultural education and traditional craft skills for young women on the reservation, including a Women's Moon ceremony for their Rite of Passage into adulthood. They need a variety of supplies, and TWF has committed to four collection and shipments to the CEnter to benefit their efforts. Our Spring collection provided fabric and sewing machines for making their dresses for the Moon Ceremony and was sent at the end of April, 2003. Our Summer collection is in progress for school and camping supplies and will be sent at the end of July. Our fall collection will be for winter clothing and will be sent in October. We have not yet determined what our winter collection will be. If would like to participate in our efforts, please join us at one of our scheduled meetings.
