Support a Family in Their Time of Loss


A local family is grieving the heartbreaking loss of a beloved mother, who passed away unexpectedly at only 35 years old — shortly after welcoming a new baby. She leaves behind her partner and four young children.
As the family navigates this unimaginable time, we are asking for community support to help ease their immediate needs. Gift cards to the following places would be especially helpful:
  • Walmart
  • Kroger
  • Pizza Hut
  • Wendy’s
  • McDonald’s
Additionally, donations of size 1 diapers and baby formula (Enfamil – green can, or Similac 360 Total Care) would be greatly appreciated.
Your kindness and generosity will make a real difference as this family begins to rebuild and heal. Thank you for your compassion and support during this difficult time.  Any monetary help is greatly appreciated! https://givebutter.com/nbLakota and designate Family Loss

Help a young single mom!


A young single mother of three in our community is in urgent need of a safe, reliable car seat for her 8 month old baby. Their current seat is no longer appropriate, and due to financial strain, she’s unable to replace it on her own. We are requesting one Safety 1st Grow and Go All-in-One Convertible Car Seat (from Walmart or something similar) to ensure her child can travel safely to childcare, school, and appointments.  This seat will grow with her child, offering long-term security and stability during a time when consistency is greatly needed. Mom is also looking for help with size 3T pull-ups, size 4 diapers + wipes for her two babies! 

Your support will provide immediate safety and peace of mind for this hardworking mom and her children. Thank you for helping a Lakota family in need!Any assistance or support would be greatly appreciated. https://givebutter.com/nbLakota and designate Car seat

Books


We have a 5th grade Lakota student who loves to read and would be thrilled to have some books of his own at home! He’s currently with a temporary guardian, and we’d love to help him keep growing and thriving through the magic of stories.
He’s a huge fan of fantasy and mythology — he’s already finished Harry Potter and the first five Percy Jackson books, and he also really enjoys One Piece.
If you have gently used or new books in similar genres, let’s help fill his world with imagination and adventure! Any monetary help is greatly appreciated! https://givebutter.com/nbLakota and designate Books
