The Community Baby Shower helps hard-working families in our community often struggle to make it from paycheck to paycheck, with little left over for savings or unexpected expenses. From time to time, they need to rely on help from area programs including Rebecca’s Closet. Now - May 7 you can help by purchasing needed items from our Amazon Wish List. These items will be shipped to our location and inventoried for Rebecca’s Closet. Or drop off donations at two central locations, Peoples State Bank, all Marathon County branches and Associated Bank on Stewart Ave, downtown and Weston.
