Earlier this month we were able to purchase a community member a trailer home, and are now trying to fundraise money to connect this trailer to the electric grid. You can direct money to $ZitkatosTinCan on CA or @zitkato on ven, or bandsofturtleisland@gmail.com on Paypal. We got a ton going on already this year, and I think we more then proven our ability to do great things with your support, so please support this endeavor to provide basic amenities most people enjoy. The reason we do not have access to this electricity easy or cheaply is due to the design of the Indian Reorganization Act and Allotment Acts (Dawes Acts), and New Deal public works projects like Pick-Sloan Plan which though producing a lot of electricity does not service the reservations it helped undermine the traditional social organizing in river valleys that were flooded. A land grab not for profit, but for public land for public good, to quote the national parks program.

Beyond this goal which we have 45/1000 of we are seeking an additional $800 for either more wood or more nights in the hotel depending on time it takes to get repairs done. We are also trying to get a shipping container for 2500, we have 1121, that will be filled in Toronto by several organization (EcoJust Food Network, Beads Against Fascism, Fellow Travelers, etc) https://www.gofundme.com/f/deliver-wood-coats-supplies-to-pine-ridge?utm_campaign=unknown&utm_content=undefined&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=linktr.ee with a variety of aid to be distributed and then the container will be utilized to store building materials. It will also be used by the permaculture experts who will arrive in March, they will be staying in a Tipi and tents until we can build an A-Frame cabin so the container will also be their main storage. This will be shipped with the help of the org Direct Aid, who also ship more furniture and appliances then what we do in our container, only we dont get to keep their trucks but they handle the brokers and truckers which was a larger barrier to our goals.

There is a lot more going on this year so I recommend following our other social medias while I get better at updating here and participating in the communities. https://linktr.ee/chunkalutanetwork has all of our links, as well as a patreon and liberapay you can join to provide stipends for our organizers across the world (this isnt an exaggeration and we have member in Bulgaria, Germany, Japan, Australia and more!) Our goal is 2k/month this year we are already more than half way there and look how much we accomplished before getting that first 1k. I know there are software engineers and such on here with a lot of money that they probably give to podcasts, well we have a podcast and we do so much more than the average Joe. Help us show a better way, be a part of something amazing

You're gonna regret not supporting sooner!

Here https://gofund.me/3e75a0c6 is a link to a current winter drive, part of the money is intended to get land for the organization to hold in trust and steward. Leo is a big source of where we are buying the land as he does not want to sell to /just/ anybody, and trusts us as we have saved his life already before. We still need to raise about $1700 to buy a 2 bedroom trailer home with free hauling to location, in return for a parcel of land. This is overall more than a 15k dollar value and I really hope one of you tech bro types see whats happening here. There is a lot of good places to use your ill gotten wealth specifically on NDN land. If you make more than 2k a year you make more than the average person on my reservation, we are bringing several jobs this year with the help of the Nation of Hawai'i, and helping with some incredible historical achievements as well that you will read about. I can confidently say that. So be apart of something bigger than whats on offer because we will move mountains this year, especially as the people become our mountains. Our governing documents will release this year along with our website but if youre holding out then I recommend just actually investigating our social media listed on linktr.ee/chunkalutanetwork also just so you know this isnt like hes comfortably sleeping on someones couch. We were only just able to get him a cot and he sleeps everynight in a snow suit like he's going to chop wood. He deserves a home

Our organizers on Pine Ridge are in need of $600 to make some much needed repairs for the used car they were able to buy after the heater in their old vehicle broke; if anyone is extra wealthy and feeling kind they also could use a break from keeping a fire going all night to survive. So we are trying to raise an additional 500 to get several rooms for a few nights for the 15 people staying in their home right now. I think this is a worthwhile donation for anyone who sees the work we have been doing here

I brought a 20' Uhaul full of stuff and they're already done distributing everything but the wood, which we are also fundraising gas to pay for the delivery and chopping of the wood with a chainsaw as a major storms rolls in. The only opening for the mechanic is Tuesday so please help our endeavors in keeping people alive. Please send donations to $ZitkatosTinCan on CA, @zitkato on ven, bandsofturtleisland@gmail.com for Paypal, or join our liberpay or Patreon listed at linktr.ee/chunkalutanetwork to sustain our efforts more consistently. This is a big year and trust me you'll see why as time permits me to update

We are in urgent need of 500 for groceries for a household of 15 this winter, gas to gather wood and a Christmas dinner for 30 people send to $ZitkatosTinCan on Cashapp or @zitkato on Venmo and then Paypal is just bandsofturtleisland@gmail.com generally theres not nazis here so not too worried

Friends and Comrades, Another Organization has been inspired to take up the cause of improving living conditions on the Pine Ridge Reservation. After seeing the paltry "meals" currently being served to the Elders by a "charitable organization", they knew we must and Will do better.

Help us treat these Elders with the respect they deserve by spreading and contributing to this fundraiser to start a kitchen operation on our newly acquired land.

Thank you all for your time and attention. We appreciate your help in bringing about a better world.

Indigenous climate activist, artist, musician, and father Jacob Johns was shot in the chest during a peaceful protest by a white supremacist. Please circulate this GFM for his recovery! We must stand in Solidarity with Native activists!

Comrades,

Thanks to the generous contributions of dozens of folks, we were able to raise the funds for our Construction projects on the Pine Ridge Reservation. We will be building a distribution center on the newly acquired land!

However, a small setback has popped up, and we Need your help Urgently! With the guidance of the traditional Headsman of the Oceti Sakowin, some of the Construction funds were used last night to save the life of a Native person. They had been bitten by a Black Widow spider and needed to immediately be transportation to be tested and administered Anti-Venom.

This leaves us about $300 short of the funds for a project to provide housing for a Native family. We need to replace those funds Urgently to get this done while we have our representative there. We know this may be frustrating to those who contributed, but well-being of The People must always be our overriding priority. We refuse to put a price on a Native life, and we support the decision made by our agent on the ground.

Please share and contribute if you can to this time sensitive need to help the community! Thank you so much for your time and attention.
