Member Feedback

The Madison Public Schools Foundation proudly supports our WVCC and our state’s veterans, including Madison public schools staff and alumni who have served our country.

Our Why: I enjoy WVCC because I have the opportunity to meet community members I might not otherwise encounter. WVCC provides an easy way for the Foundation to demonstrate our support of Wisconsin veterans.

Old National Bank, a community bank that has big bank resources and small bank service.
I enjoy being a member of the WVCC because its members are my community. As a veteran, I felt isolated and alone. When I am with my fellow veterans at WVCC events, I feel home.

We love being members of the WVCC because we take pride in not only hiring many veterans and being a Service Disabled Veteran owned company, but also because its a great group of men and women that support the Veteran community and everything we take pride in as well! I think its a fantastic group that has a lot of different activities and ways to get involved whether your company is small, large, or somewhere in between!
