Hopi Winter Heat Volunteer Project
Hugh and Lainie Hoglan, 2 of our very active volunteers, took the initiative to purchase their own new pick up and trailer to haul coal and wood for winter heat for Hopi families in need. We provided donations to this to supplement their Go Fund Me and personal donations to this project. A big thank you to them!
Lainie created teaching circles in bead jewelry making with Hopi ladies while Hugh was out on the long coal runs.
They also donated their trusty Suburu to a young Hopi family who needed transportation to get to work and also to make deliveries of donations in their village.
