Special Needs for Christmas and the New Year

Playing outside is fun if you have warm clothes!
Playing outside is fun if you have warm clothes!

We work hard to provide a safe, welcoming place for children and families to heal. People often ask what kinds of items we need the most, but the answer is simple — we need what you need.

Things like toilet paper and toothpaste that run out. A cozy pair of pajamas, slippers and a warm blanket for cold nights. Towels for your morning shower.

Cheyenne River Indian Outreach gratefully accepts a variety of household items to be used for our shelters and to help women establish a safe home of their own.
