Quotes from Volunteers

“Hello Kirby, your good heart and taking action to care for our Native American students at Sherman Indian High School is to be commended…I was very impressed by many of the students who worked very hard and tirelessly to paint. Our block wall detail was led by a student intern from your Hal Hays Construction and we did our best to make that wall look sharp. Your intern, Qiana, was a good boss to all of us on her block wall crew. She hustled around to ensure we had enough materials, painted and she even brought us bottles of water to keep us hydrated. Congratulations for leading everyone to take some real action to help improve the dorm situation out there at Sherman. If you are able to organize these efforts again in the future, you can count on AD PRO and the American Indian Chamber’s support. We are very proud to stand with you my friend.”
