On this year, employees at the City of Wyoming showed amazing kindness for our Kids Closet! We've received so many packages from our wish list to help replenish things officers and firefighters have passed out to community members and kiddos in need.

If you'd like to help, our list can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2JLFOVP7ZHYLG?ref_=wl_share

Our biggest need right now is clothing for boys and girls sizes 18M - 5T and boys pants sizes XS - XL

We were thrilled to host our Ladies Christmas Party, the first since 2019! We had sixty attendees made up of women either active or retired from City of Wyoming - City Hall and their guests. They all joined us for dinner, raffle prizes, and a great time. All profits from the night benefited WECO and the Kids Closet.

Thank you everyone for joining us and for your kind donations!

Stay tuned for future events!

Summer was a busy time for WECO!

We assisted 9 families and 21 kids from May through August. For the 2019 year, we’ve assisted 26 families and 57 kids! The items most frequently requested were hygiene products, school supplies, and basic clothing.

The Kids Closet was also used multiple times over the summer for hygiene products and donated backpacks for adults and kids.
