Thank you so much, Carol. Diane was my mom. She is sorely missed. When she was diagnosed with a fatal form of Leukemia in the summer of 2023, she made it clear how important the Lakota Friends Circle was to her. It’s taken me too much time to reach out to you but very glad to be connected. She would be thrilled to know how her funds were helping. I’ll spread the word about your fundraiser.
With highest regards,
Ellen G.

Good Afternoon,
I wanted to introduce myself, My name is Cheristine M. and I am from the Pine Ridge reservation, I am Oglala Lakota. I recently applied to the Lakota Funds Circle (LFC) and I wanted to take time out of my day to let you know how much appreciation I have for people like you. Scholarships for Lakota people are appreciated by me, I love it when people help us achieve our dreams. We are our ancestors’ wildest dream in surviving these new times and with your help we can achieve it. Wopila Tanka (A big thank you!)
Best Regards,
Cheristine M.
