Recently Filled Needs

Calculators Needed


We have students in need of specialized calculators for Math classes. We have approximately 15 High School students that need the TI 83, 83+ or 84 and do not qualify for support from other community organizations. We also have approximately 5 Junior High students in need of the TI 30XIIS. The total cost is approximately $1325 to meet these needs as we are trying to buy these in bulk for reduced cost, with batteries included. However, if you have a very gently used working TI calculator of any of these models, we would welcome those as well. We know that we may have more than our initially identified students and these can continue to help meet the need.

Car insurance for single mom in Lakota


A hardworking single mother with children in the Lakota School district is currently facing a financial setback and needs support. Despite her best efforts to provide for herself and her three children, she has fallen behind on expenses and was unable to keep her car insurance active. As a result, she now needs $519 to reinstate her policy so she can continue driving to work and supporting her family.
Any assistance—no matter how small—is deeply appreciated and will make a real difference in helping her stay on track. If you would like to make a donation to help us reach our goal, click on our link,  https://givebutter.com/nbLakota and designate the  contribution to "Insurance."
