Start an Elder's Day with Breakfast-in-a-Bag
Start an Elder's day out right by providing a grocery bag of nutritious breakfast food for an Elder on the Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota. Elders receive the groceries in the third week of the month when their funds are starting to run low. The groceries usually include a dozen eggs, 2 pounds of bananas, applesauce, a bag of potatoes, milk, bread, juice, cereal, ground beef or stew meat, and link sausages.* Elders particularly like the potatoes and stew meat because they can use it for soup and make it last longer.
