December Food For Tribal Families Distribution

CVMT Tribal Staffer showing Program Director, Mildred Burley, the newer supplies acquired through a program with the California Office of Emergency Services and its representatives Daniel and Mark.

Another benefit of being supplied by the California Office of Emergency Services is that it is local and addresses immediate needs quickly. Here displayed is the very conveniently sized bottles of hand sanitizer. The tribe is very grateful to have had Daniel and Mark reach out to them on behalf of the state and include the tribe in its services.

Big box of gifts, fresh fruit, lots of frozen meats, canned goods and Covid related supplies received by the tribe through working with the state of California made this a great late evening stop and a great way to finish out 2020.
Merry Christmas everyone. — Big box of gifts, fresh fruit, lots of frozen meats, canned goods and Covid related supplies received by the tribe through working with the state of California made this a great late evening stop and a great way to finish out 2020. Merry Christmas everyone.

( The tribe contended with major Covid related issues that caused a delay in story updates, for those who follow, sorry for the delay )

On Thursday evening, December 24th, ( Christmas Eve ) 2020, the California Valley Miwok Tribe was able to make a last minute special delivery, ( delay caused by Covid issues ) to its Program Director, Mildred Burley, to distribute among the federally recognized citizen families of the tribe.

This month once again saw an abundance of donations and extras that included gifts and presents, fresh picked fruits and Covid supplies.

Also, the USDA was involved due to a change in qualifications in enrollment and due to these changes, the tribe encourages anyone interested in this program to apply through a local tribe in your area. If you were ineligible before, your status may have changed.

The tribe would like to thank the ( USDA ) United States Department of Agriculture, Walmart Stores Inc. Food For Less Inc. Morada and its surrounding communities.

The tribe would especially like to thank Daniel and Mark of the, California Office of Emergency Services, ( Cal OES ) for reaching out to the tribe and providing locally much needed Covid supplies and information to best protect our tribal citizens.
