Generosity is in its jeans
Cheyenne County for a Cause used to be known as "Dress Down Days" where employees could pay their employers $1 to be able to wear jeans, or simply dress down in general on Fridays. With today's more casual work place and work from home scenarios, the program was rebranded as Cheyenne County for a Cause. Anyone can donate weekly or monthly through an employer or online through the Cheyenne County Chamber's Venmo account.
Any non-profit organization can apply for the funds by submitting an application on the Chamber's website and all applications are reviewed by the Chamber committee to make sure the applicant meets the criteria. One applicant is chosen each month for the funds.
The Chamber is always looking to increase participation
for both applicants and donations.
