Faith in Action of Marathon County

06/16/2026

Recently, one of our volunteers shared their experience with Faith in Action of Marathon County in a letter that was published in a local newsletter. We are grateful for their kind words and for the many volunteers who help our senior neighbors remain independent and connected.

If you've ever considered volunteering, we invite you to read their story and learn more about the impact a simple act of kindness can make. ☺️

A heartfelt THANK YOU to one of our generous volunteers for donating stamps to our organization!

Something as simple as stamps helps us stay connected with the seniors we serve through mailings, cards, and important information. Your thoughtful donation helps support our mission and keeps our services moving forward.

We truly appreciate your kindness and support!
