Oceti Sakowin (Seven Council Fires) Camp in North Dakota needs your help! They are in desperate need of many things to help them winterize the camp.  North Dakota winters are very cold your donations are very important to provide safe and warm places for the water protectors to sleep. They have become a community and want to stay together!

Not only have they become the example of what people can do when they stand united to protect the Earth, but they are the front resistance to Big Oil and raising awareness for the entire world to see.

The camp has shown that human beings can live with less and create a sustainable way of life for the future generations. Oceti Sakowin Camp is a shining light in a world that has lost hope when it comes to reversing the capitalism mindset. They have created an atmosphere of sharing and healing in the community where prayer and teaching of the traditions of caring for the Earth are the center of life.

The people live simply sharing and opening their heart to the visitors who wish to help. There is a beautiful exchange of native values and experiences teaching one another and strengthening the human race as a whole. The oppressed native peoples who have long lived with the trauma of being displaced and disempowered are finding their voice and the youth again are proud of who they are and their traditions. This is healing the Earth in a big way and the wisdom of the first nations is being transmitted again to the future generations!

The vision is to assist the camp in becoming a sustainable community so they can continue to light the way to healing the Earth and the People. Winter is coming and a need for stable, warm structures such as yurts is immediate. We need at least three as community centers one for the wellness center, one as a meeting room for council and teachings, one as the dining hall and whatever else they need the space. They also need charging stations for cell phones, and lastly showers! In the moment that I am writing this there are no showers in camp. Please help with what you can to see this growing community blossom. "Mitakuye Oyasin" (All beings are all connected)
