Cultural Education
 

Midwest Save Our Ancestors Remains & Resources Indigenous Network Group Foundation, (Midwest SOARRING Foundation) is a Native-based, not-for-profit organization formed in November of 1996.  Our mission is to offer assistance, when asked, as a facilitator to the tribes regarding repatriation concerns, educate the public about various Native American issues including repatriation, cultural and environmental issues and building community among all people.  Our goal is to widen the knowledge of native plants and their uses and in the future, form trade of seeds and plants among different Tribes, while also working toward building a re-created working village where members, as well as family, friends and visitors can enjoy a sampling of our rich heritage.

The Midwest SOARRING Foundation educational committee exists as a reference guide for individuals or groups that are interested in Native American history and culture.  The commiteee has provided lectures for numerous college, secondary and grade school classes, DAR, SAR, and scouting groups as well as many other interested groups and organizations.  

The committee maintains one of the largest reference libraries on Native American history and culture, including a fairly large museum of Native American Art.

Members of Midwest SOARRING Foundation or interested parties may contact the SOARRING office at 773-585-1744.
