Stop Youth Drug Endangerment is askinf for a donation or support. We are seeking support and donations in the efforts to purchase an Ion Scanner to help the fight against methamphetamine. The Ion Scanner is estimated at $35,000.00 for a mobile unit. The Ion Scanner can detect particles of drug residue and some explosive material. This will help all of Fort Berthold in the fight against Meth use, production and selling.
