Pine Ridge Reservation Radio Station Needs Our Support _http://www.kiliradio.org/_ (http://www.kiliradio.org/)
KILI radio, a small, but important station from the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota has been unable to broadcast since its transmission tower was damaged in a spring storm. $200,000 is needed to repair the tower, then matching grant funds will take care of the rest.
In the meantime thousands of local residents remain isolated without their community and cultural voice. An effort is underway to raise funds.
Please forward this letter to all you know, don't let it stop till we are back on the air:
The station is still broadcasting and is accessible through live streaming on their website. Whereas you and I and thousands across the globe can find out about the upcoming school board meeting, a majority of those in Pine Ridge cannot. Access to the Internet is simply not an option for many in this poorest of poor American Indian reservations.
