CSA Women’s Leadership Breakfast – March 5th

On March 5, 2020, the Congregation of Sisters of St. Agnes (CSA) will host their 16th Annual Women’s Leadership Breakfast, celebrating and honoring women leaders whose work and life choices have positively influenced both local and global communities.  Immediately following the breakfast, a “Nuns and Nones” gathering between 10 sisters and 10 “nones” will take place. This gathering is first of its kind in Fond du Lac. There is no cost to participate, however advanced registration is required to participate based on the limited space.

 

All proceeds from the Women’s Leadership Breakfast Funds go to support Marian University’s Working Families Grant, a collaborative effort to empower economically disadvantaged families through education. This proactive program, co-sponsored by CSA and an anonymous donor, provides families with tuition assistance and stipends for food, rent and childcare.
