How about a donation to a non-profit that works in Native American communities?

Black Elk Speaks or The Sacred Pipe. However, depending on how long your friend has been interested in this, she may have already read these.

A Northwest Coastal Indian belt buckle of their totem animal?
The silver ones linked are a little pricey but you can find brass or pewter ones for much less. The raven on my belt cast about $20.

A subscription to the paper version of Indian Country Today costs $48. If said friend is the sort to care about contemporary Native issues and culture and not fantasy Indians, ICT is the essential resource. You can already read a lot of it online or get it as a podcast, but the paper version does have exclusive content and some people are more likely to read something that comes in paper on a weekly basis, like a magazine.
