Onalaska Alliance Auction a Big Success!

Thank you to the many community and business members who donated to the Onalaska Alliance auction.  Because of you, we were able to raise enough funds to support the Carlisle Lake Park for another year!  Also, the community Backpack Program had many donations to support students in our school.  Your contributions have made a difference in our community.  You may still donate by clicking on the DONATE button at the bottom of the page.

I don't want to be a member, can I just donate money?
Of course you can. By becoming a member you allow us to recognize you for your generosity. Every year we will host a membership dinner in your honor. We like doing things like that, but we also know that there are some folks who prefer to help out behind the scenes. We also realize that there are folks who can't donate $60/year. Every little bit helps, so if you would like to donate anything from $5.00 on up, please use our Pay Pal Button below. Thank you in advance for your help in making our community sustainable.
