Received call yesterday but did not answer. No message left. I see from previous posts that St Labre has been cited as the caller, but St Labre is located in Montana, so any call from Arizona (Phoenix area code) should be considered suspicious.
Called today requesting donation i said i would consider mailing a donation he wanted to take a payment over the phone i said no and hung up . they callled back about 5 times and i didnt answer .very annoying
Called at 8:14 A.M. EDT. I didn't answer. No message. I'm sick and tired of all these crank calls!! Our number is on the"do not call" list, which apparently means nothing these days.
Got a call from this number this evening - 3/9/14 @ 6:17 PM. It showed "Out of the Area" and no message was left. I did not expect them to leave a message, so I decided to find out who was calling and looked it up.
Gary said his caller was: st labre indian school - and if so, I do know who they are. I do give them donations during the year. I do NOT appreciate them 'calling' for a donation. I had this happen with another non-profit organization and because I did not who it was (on vacation and the # was directed to cell #), I did talk to them and decided I was NOT going to send a donation. If I want to give a donation I will do it MY way and not from phone calls. I do NOT trust someone calling for a donation, at all. Since this is an organization that are Non-profit, they CAN call, because they are allowed and for some reason (I think) the DNC (Do Not Call) applies to them. In any case, I did not answer and will not answer these kinds of calls and especially when they do NOT leave any messages. Good Luck in thinking we will answer. Thanks Gary for letting others know who was calling.
We give to St Labre, we believe it is a good charity that actually does concrete good for native Americans, but only by check and only if they send us something in the mail. They have never called us on the phone asking for donations. I'd be wary.

Caller ID read 480-428-2121 at 5:47pm EDT. Did not recognize number so did not pick up, No vmail left. By visiting this site it appears the call is allegedly from or on behalf of St. Labre Indian School. I've donated to this school for many years but never have been solicited by phone. I'll send a donation if I receive a written request, but not over the phone. As someone said be "wary."
