April is National Volunteer Month and we’re feeling ALL the gratitude!

Today we're sharing a special shoutout to our incredible Cancer Care Committee. This dedicated group shows up month after month to review applications and make sure neighbors fighting cancer get the support they need. That’s compassion in action.

Simply put: we couldn’t do this work without our volunteers. And we wouldn’t want to.

Drop a 👏 in the comments to help us thank them!

🌟 Board & Committee Spotlight: Katrin Wagner 🌟

Katrin Wagner brings fresh energy and deep heart to her role on the CHF Board and Black Cat Ball Committee. New to the board in 2024, Katrin was drawn to the Foundation because of its meaningful, behind-the-scenes work that quietly transforms lives across our region.

“I love the different facets of the Foundation and the impact it makes in our community,” she says. “From supporting families burdened by medical bills due to cancer or terminal illness, to expanding access to mental health needs and more! So much of the giving happens without public recognition, but the impact I have witnessed in personal lives is remarkable.”

We’re thrilled to have Katrin on board and excited to see the impact she will continue to make through her leadership, service, and compassion.

Happy World Health Day!

At the Community Health Foundation, we believe in whole-person care; supporting not just physical health, but mental, emotional, and social well-being too. In rural communities like ours in Northeast Wyoming, access to healthcare isn’t always a given. National data shows rural residents face greater barriers to care and that’s why programs like ours matter right here at home.

Together, we’re making sure everyone has a chance to live healthier, fuller lives.

We’re excited to introduce the newest face at CHF—Reece McGrath, our summer marketing intern! Reece is heading to the University of Wyoming this fall to pursue a degree in business, and she’s spending her summer gaining hands-on experience with our team before she goes.

From designing social media graphics to diving into our fundraising software (and so much more!), she’s already jumping right in and making an impact. We can’t wait to show her how meaningful—and powerful—the business side of nonprofit work can be.

Join us in giving Reece a warm welcome to the CHF family!

For Lori Cargill, giving back isn’t just something she does—it’s something she lives.

After losing a close friend and her mother to cancer, Lori turned her grief into purpose. For more than a decade, she has served on the Cancer Care Committee, helping provide financial support to local patients facing the challenges of treatment.

“Cancer has hit my family hard,” Lori shares, “and I wanted to do something to help others going through the same battle.”

Lori also serves on the Festival of Trees and Paint Gillette Pink committees, both events that financially support the Cancer Care Committee.

When she’s not giving back, Lori is chasing adventure—completing half marathons and traveling the world. Her compassion, energy, and heart continue to make a lasting impact in our community.

We are so grateful for Lori—and the difference she makes every day.
