This organization is ran by an amazing veteran who has gone above and beyond to help tell the stories of others who serves. Stories of injustices and to help correct the wrongs. They are not afraid of telling the truth. I will stand beside this organization full heartedly knowing they will always do what is right. <br><br>-SrA Nicole Dawson

Few injustices in the history of the United States compare to the genocide and internment of the indigenous population of the American continent. Charging Bear Community Fund has a vision of improving the health and wellness of Native American youth through its mission of suicide prevention utilizing meditation and anti-substance abuse education through the tribal colleges in the Great Plains region. You can make a difference.

Breaking Open our Piggy Banks<br>Having kids has been a big curb on my activism. I&rsquo;m not one of the mothers who was dragging my kids to protests in a sling or a stroller. I was lucky if I made it to the playground. For the past few years my focus has been homewards. It&rsquo;s natural, I know, but lately I have felt more ready. Ready to act in a way I haven&rsquo;t been for a long time.<br>Good thing because I am in Europe, and Europe is in crisis. This past month I have been flung, (or have flung myself) into direct action with local Syrian families near my home in the Languedoc Region of France. My friends and family all know this as I&rsquo;ve been posting and emailing updates here and there, requesting funds, sharing petitions and heart wrenching accounts from the trenches of other regions. I&rsquo;m online a fair amount for my work, but most of the times I&rsquo;m pretty strict with myself around when is family time and when I can be on my phone or computer. Not recently.<br>This means, of course, that I have barely done the dishes in a month. Barely played Chutes and Ladders (ok, I don&rsquo;t mind either of these.) My husband has picked up the most of the slack, picking up the kids from school and not picking up a lot of crap in the living room. And while I&rsquo;ve been woefully neglecting my privileged little kiddos, I am reminded of how much they learn by watching and listening to us.<br>My seven year old has been deeply curious about the work I&rsquo;ve been involved in lately. Like you&rsquo;d expect, I get a lot of questions. And most of them are right on.<br>&ldquo;Why can&rsquo;t we just give them a home?&rdquo; &ldquo;How long does a war last?&rdquo; &rdquo;Mom, why don&rsquo;t we just take them shopping so they can choose their own groceries&hellip;.?&rdquo; &ldquo;Can&rsquo;t they just give us a shopping list so we make sure to get the food they like?&rdquo;<br>And this morning as she crawled into bed with me for a cuddle, the first thing out of her mouth, &ldquo;Mom, how many refugee children are there? &ldquo;<br>&ldquo;Why sweetheart? In the world or in B&eacute;ziers?&rdquo;<br>&ldquo;Here, in B&eacute;ziers.&rdquo;<br>&ldquo;about 15&ndash;20 I think, why?&rdquo;<br>&ldquo;Because I want to share my money with the kids.&rdquo;<br>I headed down to make my first coffee of the morning, and shortly after she traipsed into the kitchen with a plastic bag with half of her piggy bank. She had convinced her little brother to share half of his too, no small feat. A few hours later I delivered the ten euros in change to my neighbor who was driving up to Al&egrave;s with one of the families we had met in B&eacute;ziers. They had just received government housing and my kids had met their kids last week. &ldquo;Five euros each&rdquo; my daughter instructed me, &ldquo;for my new friends to buy something they like in their new home.&rdquo;<br>We hear a lot of about how we need to disconnect and pay attention to our kids. But what about when we are connected because we&rsquo;re connecting with something larger than ourselves, larger than our own immediate families. We&rsquo;re giving them a chance to see beyond their own houses. To understand that they can share what they have. That the world isn&rsquo;t always fair but they can do their part to make it better. And if not, as one of my colleagues here said, &ldquo;We can always start a Facebook group for these poor, neglected kids.&rdquo;

I was introduced to this great animal shelter by one of my friends who used to run this shelter and though she has since changed jobs, she is still very active there. This no-kill rescue shelter does an excellent job of taking in dogs and cats that have been abandoned, found, unable to be cared for by their owners, etc. They are a hard working, compassionate group of people who act on behalf of these animals to try and find them their "Forever Homes" and they do this most efficiently and effectively. They are partners with the Petsmart Store in Clive, IA where they take any adoptable kittens and cats so they receive better exposure and so increase their chances of being adopted. They are also associated with the Rescue Wagon program, whereby most of the dogs that aren't adopted from their shelter are picked up and taken to a larger metropolitan area which also increases their chance of finding homes. The cleanliness of this shelter is unbelievable considering the amount of puppies they sometimes have. They follow a very rigorous system in order to maintain this level. They have many volunteers who appear to me to be more than happy to donate their time cleaning, walking the dogs and helping with the never ending task of fund raising. The animals brought into this shelter are all checked for medical problems, vaccinated and spaded/neutered before they are put up for adoption. And this is just what I am aware of for I know they do so much more for the community of Fairfield-animals of the human persuasion included! I am very impressed and very happy with the new four legged friend they helped me to find.
