Annual Christmas Gift Drive 2010

 Each year, Wakanyeja Tiospaye O'Tipi - Children's Village, Inc. sponsors an annual Christmas gift drive.

Last year 150 children and their families from three Pine Ridge Indian Reservation Communities received gifts.

Some families would not be able to afford gifts, and it is a time of great appreciation for these families.
