DUDES!!! Elaine and I worked together on the White Mesa Ute Res....I served two years and she is serving her third as VISTA volunteers!
She has done an amazing job. She started the idea when a navajo mother asked her to borrow some money to buy food. She loaned it, but asked why the mother needed to borrow. The mother said there were no jobs for 'her kind', and she was right! Elaine started Lickity Split for the kids to make some cash, and it took off. She then invited the Ute to get involved. THey are the poorest people I have ever known, contrary to all that BS about Native Americans getting all kinds of money from the government. If any of you have been paying attention to Bush's proposed funding cuts for next year you will know he intends to cut way way back on everything basic the government funds for these people. Thanks for posting that!
