2. Make a tax-deductible donation via PayPal on the CRYP Web site at www.lakotayouth.org.
3. Donate a gift. To request a specific “Dear Santa” letter and to see the most-requested-gift list, contact Julie Garreau, executive director, at (605) 964-8200 or via e-mail at julie.cryp@gmail.com.
4. Donate gift cards, gift bags, wrapping paper, tissue paper, tape or anything else that might assist in toy-drive preparations.
5. Consider donating a Santa suit! We’d also love clothes for Mrs. Claus and the elves.
