Cheyenne County
For a Cause

Together We
Can Make a Difference!
Cheyenne County for a Cause was started in 1997 by the Ladies Division of the Cheyenne County Chamber. Originally called “Dress Down Days”, it was designed by the Ladies Chamber to assist charitable projects within Cheyenne County. By the end of 2014, the Ladies Chamber donated to over 210 organizations or charities in Cheyenne County. Since the inception of Cheyenne County for a Cause, the program has raised well over $200,000.
We are proud of this program and happy to continue it as part of the Chamber. It reflects the pride people have in our community and the giving spirit we have here: Together We Can Make a Difference!
All organizations wishing to be considered for Cheyenne County for a Cause funds are required to fill out an application form, which is available at the Chamber office or can be printed directly (see document link below). The application will then be reviewed by our committee to make sure the project meets the criteria and qualifications to receive funds. When a group is accepted, they are notified and a specific month is appointed for them to receive the funds. Very rarely is an application rejected.
