The Saginaw Chippewa Tribe of Michigan is making Christmas wishes come true for children on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.
The tribe's Seniors Program is sending a truckload of packages to 3-, 4- and 5-year-olds served by the eight Head Start centers in Pine Ridge. The children prepared a "wish list" of items they want and need.
Separately, the tribe is donating to needy Native kids in Michigan and in Canada. The donations were arranged through the tribe's Angel Tree program.
