ASPIRE Service Project

This year the ASPIRE Social Justice Committee service project will be centering the Native American student population of North Dakota by raising money to support Cankdeska Cikana Community College (CCCC) which houses a TRIO Talent Search program.
CCCC, or Little Hoop in the Dakota language, is a tribal college that serves the Spirit Lake Dakota reservation community. The Spirit Lake reservation is located in Benson County, ND which has double the US Poverty Rate at close to 30%. CCCC averages 200 students per semester; in general, a CCCC student is a 27 year-old female Native American single mother, who usually works full-time. Endemic poverty, historical trauma, lack of preparedness and confidence, and the resurging drug epidemic are all factors that impact the success of CCCC students – and now the pandemic!
Please consider making a donation in any amount to Cankdeska Cikana Community College by visiting this link: http://www.littlehoop.edu/donate/donations.html and clicking on the “donate” button on the bottom of the page.
Your donations will go to the “CCCC COVID-19 Angel Fund” that provides CCCC students with $25 gift cards for food, supplies, gas, etc. to three local tribal vendors. Your donations will contribute to the success, retention, and livelihood of Native students at CCCC.
