Join us during the Challenge for Charities season in Lander, Wyoming!

Support Community Entry Services today during the Challenge for Charities season!





Lander, Wyoming, a community renowned for its natural beauty and vibrant spirit, is currently abuzz with a remarkable event that combines philanthropy and adventure. The Challenge for Charities, hosted by the Lander Community Foundation, is in full swing, offering a unique opportunity for individuals and businesses alike to make a positive impact on our community. This event has gained tremendous momentum over the years, transforming the act of giving into an interactive experience. From now through July 10th, any donation you make to CES through this link will be matched up to a certain amount by the Lander Community Foundation. For another way to get involved, join in on the racing fun on July 4th!


How does it work?

During the designated giving period (May 1st to July 10th), both individuals and businesses have the opportunity to donate to their preferred charitable organizations through LCF. This approach provides a simplified method for nonprofits to generate funds while remaining mission-focused. Those who contribute to a Matching Fund are referred to as challengers. The Matching Fund supplements the funds collected by the nonprofits, potentially up to 60% of the total amount. To illustrate, if a nonprofit manages to raise $10,000 or more from donors, they would be eligible to receive an additional $6,000 through matching funds.


Why donate to Community Entry Services?

Community Entry Services (CES) is a pillar of support for individuals with disabilities in the Lander area. CES is dedicated to creating opportunities that promote independence, integration, and personal growth for people with disabilities, helping them lead fulfilling lives.


Through a wide range of programs and services, CES addresses the diverse needs of individuals, including vocational training, residential support, social integration, and personalized assistance. By focusing on empowering individuals, CES ensures that everyone has the opportunity to reach their full potential and actively participate in the community.


By donating to Community Entry Services, you directly contribute to improving the lives of individuals with disabilities, fostering a sense of belonging and empowerment within the community. Your generous contributions enable CES to expand our programs, provide necessary resources to our clients, enhance the overall quality of life for those we serve, and provide livable wages to our staff.

Runners experience breathtaking views of green fields, winding creeks, dramatic red bluffs, and inspiring glimpses of the Lander foothills. The 5km course leads runners through town to McMannis Park and then joins up with the Half Marathon course to finish. The 1 Mile runs out and back on Main Street with some of the best cheering you can imagine. Kick off your 4th of July with an event you can be proud of!


The parade begins at 10 AM. Stick around for the amazing fireworks display in the evening - it will be an unforgettable experience.
