We have a gofundme here that we passed 2 of 3 major goals on already and we are trying to fund another 10k for a comrade's wheelchair replacement. The project is building a home for some elders and a meeting hall for the traditional government of Pine Ridge (as opposed to the imposed neo-Colonial IRA governments), as well as purchasing land for growing hemp for in-community clothing production and more, and the truck and logistics required for the construction.
An affiliated group is also running a coat and winter supply drive for adults and children especially as Pine Ridge Reservation has one of the harshest winters in the lower 48 and many are without electricity. https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-lakota-families-stay-warm-through-winter
For a TL;DR of what Chunka Luta is, we are a network of affiliated platforms and individuals acting as a forum for organizers/communists from all over to coordinate and assist each others' on the ground organizing with the intent of creating a high level platform connecting the many movements on the continent together.
