Giving Tuesday 2022

November is the month to be thankful, and we would like to firstly thank you, the members of JWC, for all of the hard work, selflessness, and generosity you demonstrate for your family, your community, your club, and beyond all year round.  Without you we would not be able to disperse funds to organizations in need like we do each year.  You make Wyoming better, just by being in it.

With that in mind, Giving Tuesday is almost upon us, happening on November 29th!  We are asking you to help again, as you always do, by sharing any of the below, through whatever means you have (email, Instagram, Facebook, etc).  No donation is too small!  This is a quick and easy way the club can raise additional money for our amazing charities.
