industrious, respecting others and
contributing to their community.
WELLKNOWN BUFFALO CENTER

-
Strengthen their computer, reading, math, and leadership skills

Participate in traditional arts and practices with elders
-
Record and preserve Crow history and culture in a growing digital archive

Earn volunteer hours towards attending educational programs across the country

“Just as the center pole of the sun dance lodge
is the place where prayers are answered,
The Center Pole is a place for Native American youth to find help, hope, guidance
and new possibilites."
