The Buffs Closet was established this school year with the goal of assisting students in need of food and personal items. Our community has gone above and beyond, providing snacks and meals for students and families during emergencies. These families have been extremely grateful for the support.
The school has an account at the Fort Pierre Dakotamart, where anyone can make cash donations at any time. Simply inform the cashier that you would like to donate to the Buffs Closet, and they will add the money to our account. This provides an easy way for the community to contribute. However, please note that items are still accepted at the school offices.
Thank you for your donations and kindness. Your support means the world to our students and their families.
