Miami Nation of Indiana's Proud Community Contribution
eehšaliaanki….We Feed The People
As a people, going back before contact with Europeans, we always provided for our people. The members of the tribe who were too elderly, sick, or couldn’t provide for themselves, would be provided for by all the other members of the Tribe. Today the Miami Nation of Indiana continues this cultural practice of not just feeding the people of the Tribe, but all people living in Peru Indiana and surrounding Miami county. Our food bank located at the Tribal Complex is open on the 3rd Saturday of every month at 1:00pm. If you and your family are experiencing a time of food insecurity, please come see us on the 3rd Saturday of the month for assistance.
