To address systemic racism and institutional poverty, Highlands created a permanent endowment fund at Central Wyoming College (CWC) to support Native American students as they work to further their education. The endowment will meet emergency needs of Native American students living on or near the Wind River Indian Reservation and attending CWC. Contact Rev. Rodger McDaniel for more information about the fund.
Members and friends of Highlands traveled to Central Wyoming College in May to present the endowment funds to CWC administration.

The people of Highlands are partnering with the Metropolitan Denver-North Islamic Center to help Afghan refugees who fled their troubled country for safety in the US. In addition to donating $4,000 to the cause, in January 2022 we collected and donated a truckload of kitchen items needed to set up their new homes. Our support will continue and donations are welcome.
