The Cherokee Nation Angel Project is now accepting applications online through the Gadugi Portal until October 30.
Eligible Cherokee Nation citizens must be registered on the tribe’s online Gadugi Portal, which can be accessed at https://gadugiportal. cherokee.org/. Select “Applications” from the top blue navigation bar and select “Angel Project” from the list of available programs.
“Every year, we are so proud to offer this program as it creates a profound impact on these families who may need help during the holiday season,” Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. said. “The holidays can financially be tough at times, but every child deserves to open presents on Christmas day, so we are proud to continue this tradition.”
The Cherokee Nation Angel Project assists Cherokee children, ages 18 and under, who fall within income guidelines and reside within the Cherokee Nation Reservation. For each eligible child, $75 will be provided for their parent or guardian to purchase Christmas gifts.
Cherokee citizens who apply for the Angel Project must provide:
• Proof of income
• Proof of residency
• A photo identification
• Tribal citizenship card for all children
For assistance or questions about the application, call 918-4535058 during normal business hours.
