Savannah thanked people for their prayers and announced that the family is offering a $1 million reward for information that helps bring Nancy home.
And she also said this.
We also know that we are not alone in our loss.
We know there are millions of families missing.
that have suffered with this kind of uncertainty.
And for that reason today, we also are donating $500,000 to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children for their work in helping families who are coping with loss and actively looking for those who are lost.
We are hoping that the attention that has been given to our mom and our family will extend to all the families like ours who are in need and need prayers and need support.
Bringing attention to cases of the missing is something we feel very strongly about here at Dateline.
Twelve years ago, we started our series, Missing in America.
Since then, we have published hundreds of digital articles and produced more than a dozen podcast episodes, spotlighting cases of people who have gone missing.
One of those cases was Olivia Lone Bear.
Olivia went missing on the night of October 24th, 2017.
She was a 32-year-old mother of five.
She was living on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in Newtown.
She was last seen leaving a local sports bar in her teal Chevy pickup truck.
Her daughter, Haley Abramson, told us that the family knew instantly that something was wrong.
Olivia's loved ones did all they could to get attention for her case.
They held candlelight vigils, distributed flyers, and searched tirelessly for her.
Her brother Matthew spoke to the news program Democracy Now!.
They also turned to Lissa Yellowbird Chase, an advocate who has dedicated her life to finding missing people in Indigenous communities.
