Support Received For Mosaic of North Central Wisconsin
The Mosaic Steering Committee approached local foundations for start-up funding of the project. The group is pleased to announce that local foundations stepped forward to stand behind the need for the project and endorse the vision.
Funding will allow the committee to hire part-time staff early in 2022 to support its membership and grow programming and events. The focus will be to advance its vision: that all individuals in North Central Wisconsin, regardless of differences, feel they belong and are supported, welcomed, and included as members of our communities. YWCA Wausau is the operating organization for Mosaic.
