PWNA announces supply drive for Native Americans living on isolated reservations

Partnership With Native Americans (PWNA), formerly National Relief Charities, announced today a 100-day supply drive for Native Americans living on remote and isolated reservations. The nonprofit is calling upon individuals, corporations and foundations to help meet the critical needs of Native Americans who suffer the highest poverty in the U.S. yet receive less than one percent of the nation's charitable giving.

"Many Americans are unaware of the challenging conditions on reservations today and how hard community members work to improve the quality of life for their tribes while preserving their culture," says PWNA President/CEO Robbi Rice Dietrich. "We hope to collect needed goods and shed light on realities facing a quarter of a million Native Americans in our service area."
