Neighborhood Giving Benefit Concert in Eau Claire

Mary Rambo, Nu Chapter sent this picture of an Eau Claire community fundraising event in which several Nu members were involved. Kudos to Nu!


On Sunday March 1, 2026, 4 Nu Chapter members sang with the Chippewa Valley Area Singers Involved in Neighborhood Giving (CVASing) benefit concert, while many other Nu members attended and supported the fundraiser.  Several University music students also volunteered their time as instrumentalists for the event.  Over the 16 years of the choir's existence, that effort has raised over $120,000 for Feed My People Food Bank, helping many people in NW Wisconsin who experience food insecurity.
