Our commitment: In 2022, I met the youngest girl in our Indigenous community. She was a little baby, and after our encounter, a hope and dream for the future of our community children was born. It took some time, but in two years, we announced two scholarship programs. The first would be an Indigenous Youth Showcase, with cash prizes. The children could dance, or do spoken word, song, or an art piece. We wanted to create an opportunity for all our youth, as some do not dance.

The 2nd Scholarship program is the Legacy program. It's a personal commitment to the little baby girl I met, River Trombley. Our goal is to put money into her 529 education account, every year until she turns 18! We are excited to say we are getting ready for our 3rd donation!

Every year we raise money to provide scholarships to our students who participate in the REACH Indigenous Youth Showcase(RIYS).

The winners receive scholar dollars, as we call them, and the Overall winner from all categories, receives a special bonus and a commitment of an additional $500 the next year. They can request funding support for school projects, class trips, sports gear, pow wow regalia, pow trips and more. We understand that our youth need to be invested in, and supported by their "village", and this is our small part as village Aunties. We advertise their fundraisers and support their efforts.

This year we were extremely grateful to receive items from several donors who wanted to support REACH IA's Youth Scholarship fundraising efforts!

So take a look and help us REACH our goal! You will be personally responsible for expanding opportunities for our Indigenous Youth!

NYAWEH! - Thank you!
