ago, I was curious as to who is the poorest Native American tribe in the USA.\u00a0 I did a search through the internet and found that it is the Lakota Sioux who live in Pine Ridge, SD.\u00a0 I found that 97% of the population has a median household income that ranges between $2,600 and $3,500 A YEAR!\u00a0 That means that the <em>median <u>household<\/u> <\/em>income ranges between $215 and $290 a month!\u00a0 That is appalling!<\/p>\n<p>This is the United States of America, and the First Nation, who was here before any of our ancestors arrived on this land, is starving, freezing, and living in squalor. \u00a0They don\u2019t even have running water!<\/p>\n<p>There is so much more that you can read for yourself by going to <a

enjoy even some of the freedoms that we take for granted, is for them to be educated so they can raise their standard of living.<\/p>\n<p>With that in mind, about four years ago I started a monthly donation that is earmarked specifically for education.\u00a0 I\u2019m continuing that donation, but I want to take it a bit further.<\/p>\n<p><a
