Save the Olympic Wolves (and their language, too)!
CullenBoysAnonymous and QuileuteWolfPack.com are working to support 2 charities – Alex’s Lemonade Stand and The Quileute Heritage and Language Preservation Fund. Friday’s New Moon DVD party at the Borders in Scottsdale AZ is our inaugural event in this effort. Yesterday, I introduced you to the Fandom Gives Back and Alex’s Lemonade Stand.
Today, Kat from QWP shares info on our joint effort to support the preservation of the language and culture of the Quileute Indians who feature so prominently in our beloved Twilight Saga.
The Quileute Heritage and Language Preservation Fund is a charity that is run by QuileuteWolfPack.com and endorsed by the Quileute Nation of La Push, Washington. The Quileute reservation sits on 594 acres on the northwest corner of Washington state, and is inhabited by approximately 750 tribal members. Of these members, only a handful speak the language fluently today.
Every year, Native American tribes across the country are inching toward completely losing their language and culture. The Quileutes are no exception, and through the Quileute Heritage and Language Preservation Fund, we hope to aid the tribe with creating language learning materials for their youth, as well as purchasing supplies for their cultural events.
For information on how you can help, contact CBA or QWP.
