The NIEA News. The Washington Issue. “Keeping our commitment to American Indians, Alaskan Natives, and Native Hawaiians.” Volume 39. Issue 2. Winter 2008. Page 65. Emma Rosebud Maslin Giordano, daughter of Co-Founder Cherese H. Grant-Giordano/niece of Co-Founder Desert Horse-Grant, was selected to be a member of NIEA and is profiled in this quarter’s magazine. Emma has exemplified how one student can make a difference in the lives of others. The Give K’U Foundation is very proud of Emma for her commitment to those in need. She made significant contributions to the organization and collection of the 2007 Give K’U Care Bundles. Aho!

Give K’U is appreciative to all supporters of the Foundation and would like to sincerely thank Ms. Nancy Soto for her very generous contribution. Ms. Soto gave the largest gift in 2007 and her dedication to improving the lives of others is commendable. In the coming months Ms. Soto’s gift will be combined with other contributions to purchase and ship critical supplies to American Indian children in South Dakota.
