Sioux YMCA Receives Grant
Award
from the John T. Vucurevich
Foundation
The Sioux YMCA is very pleased to announce a grant
award of $18,215 from the John T. Vucurevich Foundation. This award
establishes the position of Director of Entrepreneurship and
provides marketing support for the existing Sioux YMCA Arts & Crafts
Project. Una Howe, a local artist, has been hired as director. She
possesses a Bachelor of Fine Arts, a visionary spirit and is herself
an artist, knowing fully the challenges facing the entrepreneur
artist.
The goal of this position is to
increase vital, economic links between the Sioux YMCA Arts & Crafts
Project, the “outside” world and the artisans of the Cheyenne River
Reservation. Dollars earned on the Reservation are mostly spent
here, thus multiplying the effect any increase of income has to
beyond that of the artisan earner and into the community. Una will
accomplish this by developing relationships and markets within our
existing, extensive YMCA network throughout the United States,
identifying other markets, including our website and working with
local artisans, both adults and teens, to develop their products.
She will also work with the Four Bands Community Fund of the
Cheyenne River Reservation and help provide financial and
entrepreneurship training and support.
