T-Shirts For Textbooks Raises $1,000

Sept. 18, 2009

The Harvest Initiative's T-Shirts For Textbooks program raised $1,000 for the purchase of new textbooks for the Crow Creek Tribal Schools.

The Harvest Initiative announced the total this week at a Crow Creek Tribal School Board Meeting in Stephan. School administrators will direct which textbooks they would like purchased with the funds.

The T-Shirts For Textbooks program allowed supporters to purchase specially designed Crow Creek Chieftans T-Shirts for $10 with all of the profits going toward new textbooks.

The Harvest Initiative, Inc. was organized in the spring of 2008 to invest locally in native grown ideas and support socially responsible business development to move the Crow Creek Sioux Reservation toward a commercially viable, self-sustaining economic environment.
