Clean reservations for future generations
Specific problem that I'm going to solve is the removal of toxic waist,household garbage old cars and or boats.from the Indian reservations in Washington. Also the clean up of streams to the bay of derailect fishing and crab gear. Restoring the land streams and bays to acceptable condition free of waist and harmful chemicals for the future of the native American community's our children . The amount of garbage that's not being disposd of properly is at extreme conditions and is not going to support native families much longer due to infestation and contamination of tribal lands. This problem is affecting the whole community but the long term affects of pollution to the land and water is what our children will be given to raise there families. Basically were telling them that they have to live on a active dump which is affecting them mentally and emotionally . It will be devastating to our youth if there is no land to pass on to them because of our lack of services. There out look on life loss of jobs no economic growth and numours effects that are not yet known .
Raise awareness on a national level about the horable living conditions that native Americans are living in it's third world conditions in 2023 in the United States of America starting locally with nooksack tribe providing my service and experience of the removal of contaminated soils and domestic garbage and restoration of the site. Using the data to secure funding on all 29 native American reservations in Washington
Our main objective is to insure our future generations will have a reservation free of the pollution that's plages nearly all tribal lands . Native americans are struggling to provide for there family do to lack of job opportunities lack of education and the struggles of addiction due to these factors many native homes cant afford basic trash services that non native are use to having let alone tring to implement a recycling program that can remove the abandoned cars and trucks that 9 out of 10 homes on the reservation have at least one vehicle most have 4 or more that are being over grown with black berries and forgotten. With out titles these vehicles don't make it to the scrap yard that if the families would even consider letting them go as most have become parts cars for any native in need no cash is ever exchanged its one cousin helping another fallowing our traditional ways. The more you give the richer you are . This is a teaching that non natives will never understand .
Clean reservations for future generations will benefit the whole community of Natives and non natives alike . So we plan on providing site clean up not just tribal government lands but the indian family individually . helping to secure funds thru hud programs as nearly all home owners are thru one of there housing programs .the BIA in collaboration from each tribal council .of the 29 tribes in washington is its own tribal government and each reservation will have its own challenges , were going to us facebook and the web to expedite the seriousness of the situations that native people have to indure daily. Raising awareness and funds turning a illegal tire dump in to a park using the recycled tires as new alternative to gravel or bark to keep kids safe
I'm a native American small business owner that is living with in tribal trust land of the nooksack tribe just one of many tribes of the coast Salish of Washington I was born and raised in this community and work closely with our tribal council members not only nooksack members but tribal leaders from the lummi , Skagit swinomish, tulap Snohomish pualip tribes in Washington just to name a few. Getting my children voice heard at the national level that clean reservations are a must for future generations to continue to live on there normal and a custom land what little there is set aside for them

I'm trying to raise the self worth of a people who have been opressed and abused mentally. My children see poverty and filth garbage and wrecked cars in every yard and it's socially acceptable on the reservations I want future generations to be full of pride again proud of there land and the people that they came from and by cleaning up our reservations our youth will have what's left of our land clean and a new out look on who they are that being said my business is formed and regesterd thu the tribe due to a lack of funds were unable to samit our applacation with washington state to recive a ubi number. The cost is 200 for bussnes lic N8V 360 LLC has its EIN number thru the IRS being a Native American bussnes owner has been difacult finding capital for the needed equipment . And not being able to register with washington makes it nearly imposable to rent a office secure a loan even appling for grants ones this issue is paid moving forward in compleating our bussness plan will be easy as all document are in a saved draft .
