Mission Statement

Our Mission: Empowering Lakota youth and families to improve the health, culture, and environment of our communities through the healing and strengthening of cultural identity.

About This Cause

Your gift ensures that we are able to build a healthy and vibrant community on the Pine Ridge Reservation. It also helps get us closer to our goals of changing systems and structures of injustice so that we can create Regional Equity. Thunder Valley CDC invites you to be a part of our movement to empower Lakota youth and families through community driven solutions to create lasting change. Your donation can support successes like these: Our Youth Leadership Development Program participants delivered fresh locally grown produce to over 200 families through our Community Garden. We expanded our Lakota Immersion Childcare Program into an entire Lakota Language Initiative, which has enabled us to start an Elementary Immersion Track so our Childcare graduates to continue their 100% Lakota education in their K-12 years. Local organizations have increased collaborative efforts to streamline the process of homeownership on the Pine Ridge Reservation. Most recently we had 15 families attend our homeownership education class taught in partnership with Mazaska Owecaso Otipi, a local lending organization.
