Compassion Uprising

11/15/2025

This evening, Compassion Uprising was assisting this awesome organization and tomorrow we will be sorting/boxing food for 250 families. The area the food will be delivered to is one of the most rural areas on the Navajo Nation. At the onset of the pandemic in 2020, this was one of the areas on the Navajo Nation that we were able to assist with food/supplies. None of this work was ever possible without the generosity, donations and compassion of supporters like You. Thank you. 👊🏾❤️

WCK’s Relief Team is supporting the Navajo Nation in Pinon, Arizona, after delays in SNAP food assistance caused by the U.S. government shutdown. More than one-third of families here rely on SNAP, so our teams are working with local partners to distribute food kits that ensure families have a reliable source of nourishment as the delays persist.

Yá'át'ééh abíní my friends and family..
I couldn't sleep last night and I was up super early this morning as this has been on my mind for the past couple of weeks now.
This may be the time to start this back up again.
Finding a way to help my people, the elders, veterans, single parent homes, the high risk families has always been the core of Compassion Uprising.
At the height of the pandemic, this is what I was doing with help from friends and supporters of the cause.
Assisting with food, household supplies and coordinating efforts such buying firewood from local vendors to deliver firewood.
Compassion Uprising is privately funded with monetary donations, with every dollar accounted for through transparency.
We are only successful in assisting people if there are funds available to do so, donate if you are able or share this post.
I sold some artwork recently and thus I've bought a truckload of firewood, which was delivered recently to an elder living alone.
The vendor has another truckload available for sale at $140.

Goals.
I'm listening to the panel right now on the link provided in the post.
It's all very inspiring and manifesting that I will attend a future conference for Compassion Uprising.
Give a listen.

Self-determination, intergenerational power-building, Indigenizing philanthropy—these core tenets are how we chart an Indigenous future 🔥

As headlining topics of our NAPCON 2024 plenaries, leaders at the intersection of philanthropy, Native advocacy, and Tribal sovereignty collaborated on the movement to Indigenize philanthropy. These galvanizing conversations are a must-watch for our relatives and allies looking to navigate and break ground in this new and exciting chapter of Indigenous leadership.

All three plenaries are now available on our YouTube channel, ! Get inspired today ➡️ youtube.com/playlist?list=PLY-Q9YBQr5dTHJvSXc-wX_SYAGd6o5oj8

Dropped off/donated a few children's clothes and food for this organization.
They provide much needed assistance to the community.
When I first moved here to Burque years ago, they helped me out and over the years I've given back.
So if you didn't know about them until today, donations are always welcome, but they don't accept furniture.
What's needed right now are blankets for our unsheltered relatives.
Thank you.
🖖🏾❤️

It has been a good minute since I have last updated anything on this page but we are still here.
Compassion Uprising is the embodiment of my grandmother’s teachings, her spirit, her love for not just her family but for the community, her generosity, her gentleness, her wisdom, her healing as a medicine woman, herbalist, rug weaver, her kindness, her strength, her vulnerability, her work ethic, resilience, she carried knowledge that is long gone now, I miss her laughter, her words, she always spoke and treated people with compassion.
My grandparents, our elders never complained, stronger than steel.
They gave me love, encouragement and acceptance.
K'é and Hózhó.
We are here because of them.

Tomorrow from 2 to 5pm, I will screenprint "Compassion Uprising" on tshirts at OffCenter Arts
Bring your own tshirts and a possible donation for the center if you can, Thank you.
