Dear
Mr. Ongtooguk:
I
am writing to you today in support of the exceptional work you
are doing on the website alaskool.org.
Alaskool.org
makes information about Alaska Native history, education, languages,
and cultures easily accessible. Alaska Native children and parents,
researchers around the world, individuals investigating their
heritage, and others who are interested in Alaska’s diverse
Native peoples are all taking advantage of this truly remarkable
resource. This website is a tool that is invaluable in sharing
Alaskan Native history with individuals that may live in a city
and never have a chance to visit Alaska.
I
commend you on all the work that you have put into compiling and
posting historical documents and creating an on-line interactive
language center. This website is a resource that my staff will
access often and I will share with my friends and family.
Please
let me know if I can be of any assistance in further supporting
your efforts on alaskool.org
Sincerely,
DON YOUNG
Congressman for
all Alaska
