May Update

We still have space for YOU to volunteer this summer!

Re-Member brings hundreds of volunteers of all ages and backgrounds to the Pine Ridge Reservation for week-long service-learning trips with a strong emphasis on cultural immersion. Working with our staff, volunteers complete various projects across the reservation while learning about the culture and history of the Lakota people.

We believe that in addition to providing direct, tangible support to the Oglala Lakota people, the strongest way to promote positive exchange in one of the poorest areas of the United States is to build relationships. Through relationship building, our volunteers become advocates to stand in solidarity with the Oglala Lakota people.

Visit our website to view availability, and to begin the trip reservation process today!

Join us for Re-Member’s second-annual Growing Tuesday! On Tuesday, May 3, we asked for your support to help grow the “Feather II” gardens. All gifts received on May 3 were 100% allocated to program support as we continue to expand our gardening project.

Help grow our community gardens with your generosity.

You can still be a supporter with your gift today.
