For the City Times

WOOD COUNTY – WOW – WE CARE CHARITY recently donated $10,000 to support The Hannah Center’s expansion to Wisconsin Rapids.

The Hannah Center has existed in Marshfield for 25 years, as a home for women and children in crisis. Through programming and safe housing, the center aims to prepare each resident to live successfully and independently in the community. Residents learn life skills that they can pass on to their children, ending the cycles of generational poverty, homelessness, abuse, and addiction.

“We are looking forward to expanding The Hannah Centers services to the Wisconsin Rapids area,” said Tricia Fancher, Program Coordinator at the Hannah Center. “The support of organizations like WOW – WE CARE CHARITY made this project a reality.”

WOW – WE CARE CHARITY was happy to find an organization that “aligns with their core values and one with which it can grow.”

“Our board believes in the mission of The Hannah Center, and we are looking forward to continuing our involvement with their organization through volunteer opportunities for our employees in Wisconsin Rapids,” explained Cheri Ledvina, president of WOW – WE CARE CHARITY.
