Anderson Secretary/Treasurer Here at the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community, we are firm in our commitment to help others; this is ingrained in us as Dakota people from a young age. It is our tradition, our cultural responsibility, to help those who have not been as fortunate as we have been. We get no incentive or tax breaks because of our chari- table giving. It is just the right thing to do. Over the past sixteen years we have given away more than $229.3 million in grants and chari- table donations and made more than $396 million in loans to other tribes for economic development projects. In total, we donated $28,722,550 this past fiscal year. Stanley R. Crooks Glynn A. Crooks Keith B. Anderson Chairman Vice-Chairman Secretary/Treasurer Twenty tribes received grants from the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community totaling $16,042,848 in fiscal year 2011 to help improve life for their members. These larger economic development grants helped stimulate tribal economies and create jobs on reservations where poverty and unemployment are often the norm. As it was designed, Indian gaming has been successful in helping us to become self-sufficient. Now that the basic needs of our tribal members for health, education, and housing are met, we use our resources for the greater good. Indian gaming helped us not only provide these grants and others but also to provide more than 4,130 employees with jobs with good benefits.

Through the example of the Sisseton- Wahpeton Oyate history of treaties, agreements, land cessions, and finally a federal ruling of reservation disestablishment, the policies of the United States regarding Indian lands will be shown. To reestablish the territorial boundaries of the Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyate, federal recognition is necessary in the United States. International law from the United Nations, the International Labor Organization, and the Organization of American States may provide legal support for the re-recognition of the reservation boundaries.
