Support the Oglala Lakota College – Department of Nursing

Please help us support the students working towards a nursing degree in the Oglala Lakota College Department of Nursing by sending a monetary donation to the school. Your tax-deductible gift will be used to help purchase various needed supplies and materials for the nursing students and the nursing department teaching staff. The nursing program is the most costly one the college offers and there is little in their budget for the extras that can really make a difference.

The Oglala Lakota College Department of Nursing utilizes a teaching model that is reflective of Lakota values and philosophy. Those students who complete the OLC nursing program will not only master skills that will benefit them throughout their lives, but will benefit the Pine Ridge reservation community as well. Because most students are from very low-income households, your assistance will considerably enhance their chances of academic success.

Please join us today and send your tax-deductible check or money order in any amount – be it $5 or $500 – made out to “Oglala Lakota College Nursing Dept.” and mail to the address below the photos.

Aaron Huey's effort to photograph poverty in America led him to the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, where the struggle of the native Lakota people — appalling, and largely ignored — compelled him to refocus. Five years of work later, his haunting photos intertwine with a shocking history lesson.
