Thank you to the Patrick and Anna M. Cudahy Fund & Frank G. Andres Charitable Trust!



WBC Receives Grant from the Patrick and Anna M. Cudahy Fund
     Wisconsin Badger Camp is pleased to announce it is the recipient of an $8,000 grant from the Patrick and Anna M. Cudahy Fund. The grant will financially support Camperships for individuals with developmental disabilities from Illinois who attend Wisconsin Badger Camp.
     Located in Chicago, Illinois and starting in 1921, the Patrick and Anna M. Cudahy Fund foundation has continued its philanthropic work on a large scale, both in funds available and in the continuation of numerous charitable and educational endeavors.
     Because Badger Camp does not accept any state or federal funding, the Patrick and Anna M. Cudahy Fund is playing an important role in the success of the Campership Program. The generous contribution towards the individuals with developmental disabilities from Illinois plays a vital role in the success of Badger Camp by giving them the opportunity to come to camp and participate in outdoor recreational activities regardless of their financial situation.
     “Thank you to the Patrick and Anna M. Cudahy Fund,” Development Director, Kayla Leibfried said. “This grant will benefit our camper who come from Illinois. With a major portion of our campers coming from Wisconsin it’s great to have organizations like the Patrick and Anna M. Cudahy Fund supporting our Illinois campers.”
     Wisconsin Badger Camp is an independent nonprofit organization located approximately 10 miles south of Prairie du Chien and serves approximately 900 individuals with developmental disabilities each summer. Badger Camp relies on the community’s time, talent, and financial assistance to provide for its campers.
