Red Cloud Volunteer website

The Red Cloud Volunteer Program invites men and women to serve the Oglala Lakota people of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation through work in Jesuit Schools and Parishes on the reservation. This program is faith based and accepts volunteers from all faiths. Red Cloud volunteers work with students of all ages at each of the three Red Cloud Schools. Volunteers serve as classroom teachers, teacher's aides, librarians, and other support staff in the schools, and also help transport Red Cloud students to and from school each day.
