The University of Wyoming (UW) Center for Volunteer Service sponsored a volunteer fair in the LHS cafeteria in March during SEB for LHS students.

Participating in the fair were representatives from Habitat for Humanity, Interfaith-Good Samaritan, Laramie Raptor Refuge, Wyoming Territorial Prison, Special Olympics of Wyoming, and several other groups.

Students went from group to group to sign up for volunteer work they could participate in during the summer or the next school year.

Some of the events the students volunteered for include a walk-a-thon, assisting in the Special Olympics, working a gun show, and much more.

LHS clubs and organizations were also signing up for volunteer work. Among them were LHS’s Student Council, who approved the event, and Key Club.

The volunteers will be able to incorporate the work they did for future references such as college applications, job applications, and résumés.

Students who missed out on the fair, and who still wish to volunteer may do so by contacting Elizabeth Jennings, program advisor of Center for Volunteer Service, at lizj@uwyo.edu.
