A large family from the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota has found a temporary home.
The 15 members of the Fast Wolf family lost their "Rez Mansion" in a fire on June 29. Everyone lost all of their belongings in the blaze, which is believed to have been caused by faulty wiring.
The family is now living a smaller home vacated by relatives. The Black Hills Chapter of
the American Red Cross is collecting donations for the children, ages 6 through 12, and parents Varden and Mary Fast Wolf.
