This weekend members of our board and club attended the annual National Meeting for the Donauschwaben Landesverband and Stifftung, hosted by The Chicago Donauschwaben.

We had a great weekend seeing long-time friends from across North America, and first want to say a huge thank you to Chicago Donau for the hospitality.

Second, we wanted to give a shoutout to our Second Vice President and Kulturleiterin, Katlin Fuchs, who just stepped down after ten years of service on the national board as Landeskinderleiterin. Thank you for your decade of dedication!

Finally, we wanted to give a big congratulations to three of our members who were elected to the National board this weekend.

Our Frauenleiterin Irene O’Shaughnessy-Hutz has joined the national board as Landesfrauenleiterin.

Our Kinderleiterin Rebecca Fischer has joined the national board as Verbandpresse.

Our Membership Secretary and Kulturleiterin Julie Patton has joined the national board as kulturreferentin.

Congrats to all three of them for serving our National Organization, we know you will be successful in each of your positions!

Last night our Frauen put together over 100 lunches for Street Angels Milwaukee Outreach to be distributed to Milwaukee’s unhoused population. This is the third year they’ve done this service project.

We are so proud of our ladies for their generous hearts and enthusiasm to help those in need. And - we firmly believe that they make the most delicious PB&J sandwiches 😋🤩👏🏼
