Cold Sleeping Bags To Standing Rock
Donation protected
My name is Gregg Deal and I am a member of the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe and artist.
I am raising money specifically for 0 degree sleeping bags to the Standing Rock effort to protect the water from the Dakota Access Pipeline in North Dakota. The weather is getting colder and colder, and these types of resources are needed. I have a friend, Lianne, who is the owner of the business Fireside Brands, and has access to these otherwise expensive sleeping bags and pads at cost.
The amount listed is really the minimum amount. If we go above, that would be amazing. If we don't, that's still amazing. EVERYTHING helps.
The donations are going specifically to these items and the cost to make sure they get to their location. It breaks down specifically like this:
$20 - Sleeping Pad (keeping bodies off the cold ground)
$50 - Coleman Extreme Weather Sleeping Bag
$75 - A combo of both the Sleeping Pad & Coleman Extreme Weather Sleeping Bag
Personally I have not been able to do much except share and watch from afar all that is happening in North Dakota. Like most Indigenous people, I am watching on pins and needles wishing I could do something and be there. When this came up, This seemed like a good opportunity to do that. These donations will go directly to this effort, and nothing else. These donations need to happen as quickly as possible. Upon making the purchase, the plan is to get these to a UPS facility after they're shipped where I will meet them and pick them up and deliver them to camp.
Thank you all for your time and effort for this. Blessings to those on front lines of the fight against the Dakota Access Pipeline. Please reach out with questions or comments.
