Hello Chippewa Valley!

May brings a spirit of momentum — flowers blooming, days warming, and a renewed drive to turn vision into action (a lot of rain too...). It’s a time when the seeds of spring begin to show real promise and our efforts in the Chippewa Valley continue to take root and grow.

With each partnership, project, and story, we’re reminded that lasting change is built step by step, together. As we head into this season of possibility, let’s keep leaning into connection, compassion, and collective impact.

Thank you for being a vital part of this movement.

UWGCV's role in strengthening this program -

The United Way has been a partner of the Chippewa Valley Free Clinic for many years and our mission aligns well with United Way. We are appreciative of the United Way as having their finger on the pulse of the community and its needs; along with sharing their commitment to improving the quality of life for individuals in our community. Through United Way's quarterly meetings, we are able to network and learn from other non-profits in the area to help problem solve and assist each other. We are so appreciative of the ongoing support we receive from the United Way.

Greatest need(s) for this program -

Our greatest need continues to be volunteers which are at the heart of the clinic. We have immediate needs for volunteer Providers, Dental Hygienists, Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, Lab Technicians, Pharmacy Technicians and Interpreters. Shifts are on Tuesday night clinics and the first and third Thursday of each month, during the day.
