Community Outreach Task Force
Outreach Fundraiser
Hello all, We need your help. Please donate. (Links below) We’re gearing up for the winter season. Over the last 5 years we have been making a positive difference for those in need in the community, helping them to survive in the harsh winter elements. We are the only 100% volunteer-based outreach group in the community. Even though we receive a good amount of physical donations, sometimes it isn’t enough, and we need to rely on raised funds to purchase supplies. In the last 2 years we’ve gone from serving 30 people to over 60 on ...

We Need a Serious Leader Like Kyle Kilbourn
Those of us who live in northwestern Wisconsin desperately need a serious leader who understands the challenges we face in the 7th Congressional District. We need a leader who will bring fresh, energetic leadership to Congress.
Kyle Kilbourn will be that serious leader. He is the candidate we need to elect this November.
Kyle Kilbourn will work to keep our air and water clean. The incumbent representative, Tom Tiffany, does the opposite. He consistently opposes conservation measures and environmental protections. For example, he has voted to cut spending for ...

Our democracy is stronger when all voters can cast their ballots. ...
