With the help of their local food bank, the middle school has been able to distribute food most Saturdays for the past 20 years, helping to eliminate the stress and worry about where their next meal will come from.

Jackie's Story

Jackie’s Arapaho name is Te3oo Niibeisei, which means Singing Crane Woman. She always introduces herself first in Arapaho, and then in English. For her, the traditional greeting is just one way she’s celebrating, sharing and preserving her heritage–which she’s incredibly proud of.

Growing up, Jackie learned about the importance of food in her culture. As an adult, she has dedicated herself to ensuring her community always has access to food and is working with the Food Bank of Wyoming to set up food pantries for the Arapaho tribes that live on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming.

While she knows there’s a long way to go, her passion is fueled every day with the knowledge that she’s not just providing sustenance or something to be taken for granted.
