Since the Crow Creek Memorial dedication in 2002, when Rod Steiner & the Diversity Foundation begin their Dakota Outreach & Reconciliation efforts, well over 30 semi-loads of beds, clothes, food & other household items have been donated by the SE Minnesota Cities of Winona, Rochester Rushford-Peterson, St. Charles, Wabasha-Kellogg etc and DF delivered to Crow Creek, Santee, and other impoverished Dakota/Lakota Reservations, who's Native ancestors once lived, calling Winona & Southern Minnesota Homeland before treaties, 1862 US-Dakota War & forced exile in 1863. Also, this past Holiday season, DF, the US Marine Corps, Koch Trucking & the Prairie Island Indian Community & Upper Sioux Reservation provided "Toys for Tots" to over 10,000 youth on 13 underserved Reservations.
