Black Hills Energy employees in Cheyenne, Wyoming teamed up this holiday season to provide a little Santa magic for children in need by donating to the Laramie County Toys for Tots campaign.
As part of our Ambassador program, employees receive a $250 grant to donate to an approved charity. This year, four of our Ambassadors teamed up to donate a total of $1,000 to Toys for Tots.
“This donation from Black Hills Energy means so much to us. There are many, many more families in need right now because of COVID, so thank you all so much,” said Wendi Henderson, Laramie County Toys for Tots coordinator.
In addition to this effort, employees at our Cheyenne Service Center donated $600, which Black Hills Energy Wyoming matched to purchase toys for the Toys for Tots program.
