Our Impact
At the Women’s Collective of Dane County, we believe in the extraordinary impact of collective giving. One of the ways we stay true to that mission is by ensuring that every dollar contributed by our members goes straight to the nonprofit chosen each quarter. Your gift supports community, not overhead.
