The 19th Annual Cheyenne Day of Giving will be held on May 10, 2024. While they hold this event annually, they fundraise all year to assist agencies by purchasing supplies for them throughout the year. Cheyenne Day of Giving is a non-profit organization, led by Cheyenne congregations and supported by local business and community groups. Their focus is on providing an opportunity for people in the Cheyenne area to come together in an effort to help the sick and the economically disadvantaged.

In this episode, Greta Morrow shares how an idea in 2005 has become a non profit that benefits so many in the Cheyenne community by partnering with other local non profits to fill gaps and provide tangible and non-tangible donations to help their missions as well as blood drives and registering to be a bone marrow donor.
