ROCK SPRINGS, WYOMING — Commerce Bank has partnered with the Rock Springs High School Outreach Program to help students that are either borderline homeless or homeless in the community. The program, “Project Hope”, is here to aid those that need assistance in the school district and help assist children in the community and to give them a chance in school and life.
According to Tiffany Erramouspe from Commerce Bank, “We have a table set up in front [Commerce Bank] where we have received donations, we have an account set up where people have been giving monetary donations, and we do have a few other events we plan on going to. We will be out at the Home and Garden Show as well. Our staff will be available to speak with anyone and we will be handing out information, we will have a donation jar for those who want to donate, and there will be space to drop off anything someone may want to drop off.” The Wyoming Home and Garden Show will be at the Sweetwater Events Complex on April 14, 15, and 16. Commerce Bank wanted to give a big thank you to Rockin Rollin Rentals LLC, who donated the space for Commerce Bank to set up.
Whisler will be hosting their annual car show and money raised are to support Project Hope. More information about this event will be given at a later date. Andria Whisler Smith, Owner and General Manager of Whisler, chooses a charity or project for this event. “Andria is really passionate about giving back to the community, so when she heard about students that were homeless, she really wanted to help give back to them,” Ana Reynolds, Whisler’s Business Manager, said. In the past, Whisler has helped raised thousands of dollars for local charities. Reynolds explained that leading up to the car show, people can give straight donations and are recognized, depending on the amount. This year, Whisler will start registration in April for those who wish to attend the car show being held on July 15, 2023.
