American Indian Service Project Continues for the 3rd year
The American Indian Services relies on volunteer help each Christmas to provide gifts and other
necessities to needy American Indians in several western states. Large trucks of donated candy
arrived at a church in Provo that needed to be unloaded, and presents for needy families needed
to be wrapped. Later that day, trucks from several states, including Utah, Idaho, Colorado,
Arizona and Nevada arrived and were loaded with these items to be taken back to families
for Christmas. Usually, this has taken an entire day to get everything done. With the
help of the Provo Canyon Boys this work has been done in record time for the past three
Decembers.
