Giving First

This year, Friends of Wehr is joining over 100 area non-profits in asking our community to give first to Wehr before spending begins on upcoming holidays. Our fundraising goal is to raise $8,000 in support of two major initiatives core to the center’s mission: Education and trail access for all.
