The Pride

One aspect of life around Willard that becomes quickly apparent is the fact that our community supports children! Three years ago the Willard Children’s Charitable Foundation was started. Last Friday night, the WCCF Board of Trustees held a “Harvest Gathering” to say thank you to all those that have donated. Since the inception of the WCCF, donations totaling well over $60,000 dollars have been received. Several grants have been disbursed to children for several different needs including:

 Willard Fire Department
 Willard Intermediate Library
 2006 Two $1,000 College Scholarships
 2007 Three $1,000 College Scholarships
 Health / Dental Grants (individual)
 Skin Disorder
 Neurological
 Counseling
 Dental
 Vision
 Hearing

I am very proud to be an active donor to the WCCF. What is important is that I share that honor with over 200 other Willard Community Members. I believe that the WCCF has a vision for the future generations of Willard and is helping that vision come to life with every dollar donated to the cause. If you have questions or would like to become a partner in the WCCF, please contact Sherri Callahan at 742-2584.
