With a little help from the Women’s Fund of Door County, some students at Northeast Wisconsin Technical College will get some assistance to chase their dreams. As a part of the organization’s Community Collaborative Grant, the Women’s Fund of Door County and NWTC partnered three years ago to create the “Invest, Dream, Achieve.” The program gave qualified women looking to go back to school some much-needed assistance through stipends and counseling. Jennifer Moeller from the Women’s Fund says it has been very successful since its creation.

Moeller says the program has grown from approximately 20 participants in its first year to close to 40 now. The two entities will continue the partnership for another three years thanks to the Community Collaborative Grant.
