A Native American tribe that runs a successful casino outside the Twin Cities is giving $1 million to each of four tribes in South Dakota.

A grant to the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe will fund economic development and community improvements, including funds for after school programs.

The Rosebud Sioux Tribe will use its grant to build a tribal grocery store in Mission.

A grant to the Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyate will pay for two new community centers.

The Yankton Sioux Tribe will build a community center at Lake Andes.

The $4 million comes from the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community, which operates Mystic Lake Casino in Prior Lake, Minn.
