Brian Welper: Wyoming Kids Closet
Brian is the Volunteer of the Month for the Wyoming Kids Closet Sponsored by Toyota of Laramie.
Brian Welper started out as a donor to Laramie Foster Closet/Wyoming kids closet. He wanted to be more involved and he is now a board member for our organization. When it was time for us to move our location which was very stressful, Brian was able to help organize and recruit all of the volunteers that helped us move that day. There was a lot of people there, and we were able to move very quickly with a lot of help. This made a huge impact on us. It was a huge blessing to have all of those people there to help us move. It made a very stressful situation be very smooth and easy transition.
Volunteering in the community is an important role for everyone. We live in a community where so many people are working behind the scenes to help our community. I am always impressed by how many hours are given in our community without recognition! Laramie is a special community in which so many people are willing to help out! I was so impressed by the Laramie Foster Closet. I was shocked that it was started by Jenni and Alan, who just saw a need, and found out a way to fulfill that need in our community! They told me, "The citizens of Laramie are so giving and willing to help out, they just need to know what the need is, and they will be there." I love that, It really is a true statement, the people of Laramie are always willing to help and always willing to jump in. Seeing the amount of children that have been impacted by the Laramie Foster Closet has been so overwhelming and makes me so grateful to live in this community!
I am so amazed as to what the Laramie Foster Closet does for our community! I learned about the Foster Closet from different events held throughout the Laramie community! I am amazed as to how much they are willing to help not only foster kids, but all kids in our community! I am humbled by the stories they have shared with me on helping less fortunate children in our community! If it involves kids, I am there to help! The Foster Closet impacts the community in so many ways behind the scenes! I am humbled to be able to help out such a great cause! I think everyone can jump in and help, so I am thrilled I get to help out and be able to help them further their cause!
