Sun Power for Tribal Families

In South Dakota, Cleo Weasel Bear and her family are happy they can continue to be in their own home during the winter.

Since 2000, the Tribal Lands Renewable Energy Program has worked in collaboration with service organizations to improve the quality of life for Native American families living on reservations.

TREES, WATER & PEOPLE (TWP) coordinates the purchase, assembly and installation of solar heating systems for tribal people living on reservations in the Western United States. Solar power allows people to remain independent and stay productive during the cold winter months, when they otherwise had to live with other family members so they could afford to pay the heating bills. Many families must choose between food, medicine and education in order to pay for traditional heating fuels. Their health is often complicated by out-dated furnaces or wood stoves.

This technology provides a ‘new way to honor the old ways’ and respect Native American tradition of living in harmony with nature—protecting Mother Earth.
