The Yellow Hairs are one of these families. Right now, our partner organization, Earth Tipi, in collaboration with Texas Natural Builders, is constructing a new pallet home from reclaimed materials for Walter and Alison Yellow Hair. This new, sustainable house will provide much better protection from, and insulation against, the harsh South Dakota winters than their current mobile home, which was originally headed for the dump when they inherited it. With huge holes in its walls, such a poor structure can be deadly in the extreme weather of the Great Plains. We believe that every family is deserving of dignified and comfortable housing that is properly heated and we are so lucky to have supporters who feel the same way.
Now, Walter and Alison will enjoy a new home and a new source of clean, free heat with a TWP solar air heater.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to the fundraiser and helped make a significant improvement in Walter and Alison’s lives! Your contributions mean so much to the Native American families who are struggling each day to survive. Stay tuned to learn more about the other families who will receive solar heaters.
