Care Packages for Wyoming’s Homeless Veterans
Our goal: Reach every homeless Veteran in Wyoming with a care package this winter.
(Approximately 10% of Wyoming’s Veteran population is homeless.)

The Backstory
From Braids Roberts:
Years ago, during a brutally cold winter, I learned about a group of homeless Veterans struggling to survive the weather. I went home, gathered every piece of warm gear and unused supplies I could find, and brought them back.
What touched me most was that—while they were grateful for the items—they were even more grateful for the time, support, and human connection.
I didn’t spend a single dollar; I simply gathered things I had forgotten about. Yet those items made all the difference.
That moment sparked this campaign.
