National Women’s History Month
March is Women's History Month – commemorating and encouraging the study, observance and celebration of the vital role of women in American history. As you evaluate your financial plans, consider a donation to the WF endowment, planned or estate gift.
Our programming creates opportunity for people to convene around important issues that impact women. Our Community Talk Backs and Community Book Reads assemble diverse groups of people, facilitate engaging and dynamic inter-generational conversation. These experiences create discussion and group gatherings designed to challenge our thinking, adjust our attitude, influence our behavior, and change culture. We do this in support of ALL women in Greater Milwaukee.
