I have passed it on via Facebook and Twitter, and hope it spreads far and wide and finds its way to many generous souls. I grew up in North Dakota and can't imagine struggling through the harsh winters there with so little. It's unthinkable. Thank you for sharing this story.

Relocation would be particularly insulting given the history of forced relocation of native people in the US.

I have volunteered with a youth organization on the Cheyenne River reservation, (http://www.lakotayouth.org/), and they are immensely friendly, hard-working people. I hope that your article raises much-needed awareness to this area! Cathey-
