My pod partner in crime Kendall Jane and I welcome Lash and Josh into the studio to talk about the Pine Ridge Toy Drive, now in its 5th year. It's the first Christmas themed show of the year and it's a very special one. Read below to learn more about this toy drive and how you can help make some amazing kids very happy...
The Toy Drive for Pine Ridge Indian Reservation is
back!
Since 2003, Omaha rockabilly musician Larry Dunn has organized a toy
drive for the children of the Porcupine District of the Pine Ridge
Indian Reservation in South Dakota. According to the 2000 census, Pine
Ridge’s Lakota Sioux community is one of the most poverty stricken
communities in the United States. The children of the reservation are
desperately in need of some sunshine and cheer, especially during a
time of cold, harsh winds and immense desolation like winters on the
reservation can be. The majority of gifts for the children are
collected at benefit concerts put on by Omaha-area musicians. READ MORE HERE
