Making a Difference Day is an annual event sponsored by UW-W that encourages
college students to volunteer and support their local community. This year, the
Whitewater Federation of Women’s Clubs (WFWC) had the privilege of welcoming a
group of volunteers to assist with landscaping at the historic Bassett House on Friday,
April 24th.
The volunteers took on several important landscaping tasks, including weeding, raking,
replacing edging, planting shrubs, and removing branches and sticks that had
accumulated due to recent storm damage. Their efforts helped restore the grounds and
improve the appearance of the Bassett House.
The diligent work of the volunteers was in anticipation of a public event hosted by the
WFWC, scheduled for the afternoon of June 14th. This event will commemorate the 100-
year anniversary of the WFWC’s ownership of the Bassett House, marking a significant
milestone in the clubs’ history.
