Spend the evening with WorldWise Microfinance on August 27th on the rooftop of the Lyric Apartments (1010 E Washington Ave in downtown Madison). We’ll be celebrating another year of lifting families out of poverty in Africa, the Caribbean and South-east Asia.

We’ve enlisted the culinary talents of the Madison Club’s Executive Chef, Adam Struebing, to create unique dishes and drinks representing the countries of our partners.

You’ll learn about our new programs, and hear updates from the Philippines, the Dominican Republic, Ghana, Kenya and Uganda. You’ll be joined by folks with a passion for international development, women’s empowerment, poverty alleviation and providing a “hand up” instead of a “hand out”.

Celebrate the end of the summer on the rooftop of one of Madison’s newest iconic buildings, overlooking Breese Stevens Field and downtown Madison.

We always look forward to our annual Gala and are excited to share with you our many accomplishments and news about the new countries that we are currently having programs in. I just returned from the Philippines, where I spent four days with our partners on the island of Panay. I met many beneficiaries and saw first-hand the impact of micro-loans.

Our event is called, "An Evening Around the World". The venue, Lyric Rooftop Gallery at 1010 East Washington Ave in Madison has great views of the Madison skyline and we will be tasting some delicious foods. We have secured the Executive Chef, Adam Struebling, from the Madison Club, and he is preparing signature drinks and Hors D'Oeuvres from the countries we currently work with.
