Lunch and Learn Series

Mar 29, 2023 | News & Events

The Community Foundation of Central Wisconsin has a lunch and learn series called Community Lunch Hour. This event is a way for the Foundation to offer the entire community opportunities to explore and learn more about various community topics while connecting with others. Attendees will also be provided ways to get involved and help make a difference. Topics will change every month.

Thank you to the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point MBA Program and our Corporate Convening Partners Delta Dental of Wisconsin and Sentry Insurance Foundation for making our Community Lunch Hours possible.
