A collaboration in support of the Grey Snow Eagle House and the IRC
This is a digital raffle in support of two organizations, the Grey Snow Eagle House, an eagle rescue center operated by the Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma and the International Rescue Committee with relief/ refugee aid for displaced families during this crisis in Ukraine. Proceeds will help fund both efforts to rehabilitate, conserve and protect our wildlife and humanitarian efforts to provide financial aid as refugee numbers climb higher each day in Ukraine.
This 2022 Salsa Warbird size 56 was custom painted by Tulsa artist Yatika Starr Fields. Fields is a muralist, endurance athlete and advocate for Indigenous rights from Osage, Cherokee, and Muscogee-Creek Nations. He has installed original murals across the US and Europe and continues to create large scale, intricate, compelling works of art. Learn more about his work at yatikafields.com
