To the membership credit it was a unanimous decision and the $35,000.00 has already been transferred. We will be receiving a lot of recognition over the next 6 months or so, well deserved by all of us who attended the meeting and stood in support of this most worthy cause! This contribution goes beyond a simple piece of equipment and involves an actual location. Our $35,000.00 from the charity account that so many of you have contributed to has put our council on the front line in the war against abortion! We have again proved to be an integral part of providing the weapon needed to defend pro-life in Waukesha County.
