General Assistance

Hello future Sicangu graduate! You are in the right place if you are (1) Sicangu Lakota and (2) currently enrolled in a higher education program (college, university, associates, tech school, vocational, etc.) General assistance is an open $500 fund that you have to use until the end of each semester. To access it, please complete the brief form below. Then, provided funding is available, we will directly Venmo or PayPal you that amount for you to purchase items yourself. If funding is not immediately available, we will respond with our best estimate as to when it will be. You may email director@rosebudfund.org with any questions!

NOTE: If you are currently in high school, please make sure to check out the Scholar Class application. It is under the “Apply For Assistance” tab at the top of your screen. The application is currently closed, but something to think about when you are looking at going to school.

Please do not forget to reach out to the RST Higher Education program as well to see what they may have available. You can email rsthighered@gwtc.net, call 605-747-2375, or visit their website by clicking here.
