Gillette employees at Wyodak Mine donate to Angel Tree, giving back to veterans
vet

Continuing a yearly tradition, the Wyodak Mine employees’ generosity shines again with a donation to the Angel Tree in Gillette. This year, Wyodak employees personally donated almost $500 with a match from Black Hills Energy.

Due the generosity of our team, we were able to purchase each of the 75 residents in the Veterans Home in Buffalo, Wyoming a set of personal care items. Each kit included shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothpaste, razors, shaving cream and a puzzle book.

We’d like to say a huge thank you to all our veterans!

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Make sure to tag us on FacebookInstagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.
