As I Walk in BeautyAs I walk, as I walk The universe is walking with me In beauty it walks before me In beauty it walks behind me In beauty it walks below me In beauty it walks above me Beauty is on every side As I walk, I walk with Beauty. Traditional Navajo Prayer |
Giving
High Desert Concepts donates five percent of its profits to Navajo educational, cultural, and artistic projects.
In 2006, HDC made a donation to the Southwest Learning Center, an educational non-profit resource that serves the multi-cultural population of the Southwest. Its programs include high school classes in weaving given on the Navajo reservation by a Gallup Ceremonial prize-winner. As part of the course, students take field trips to local sheep owners and learn to card, spin and weave in the traditional Navajo way, helping to reinvigorate a tradition that is so important to Navajo culture.
If you would like to learn more about this program, or would care to make a donation, please contact HDC.
