Hello from Who’s New in Madison!
Who’s New in Madison (WNIM) was established in 1935 to welcome new residents to Madison, familiarize them with what the city has to offer, and provide interest groups for members to join and meet new friends. In addition to the social offerings, the Who’s New (WN) organization establishes a partnership with one nonprofit organization every year. Our 600+ members eagerly volunteer their time and resources for one year to our Service Partner. WN Service Committee members reached out to Susannah Peterson to inquire about a possible partnership with Badger Childhood Cancer Network (BCCN). Our search included several nonprofits, but in the end the committee recommended BCCN to the WN Board of Directors that unanimously and enthusiastically approved the partnership beginning July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024!
What will WN members do to support BCCN over the coming year? Who’s New in Madison’s Service Committee members will organize several fundraisers in the coming year with proceeds going to BCCN. Our members will also volunteer their time based on BCCN’s needs, will contribute and/or source donations based on items BCCN is seeking, and provide volunteer support to BCCN for their own fundraisers and events as requested. The Service Committee will also submit updates for the BCCN newsletter through our Partner contacts.
We are here to be of service, and we are very excited to support the wonderful work of Badger Childhood Cancer Network!
Here is to a very good year!
