THE BIG SHARE

Each March, the Wisconsin Women’s Network participates in The Big Share—a 36-hour online giving event hosted by the Community Shares of Wisconsin where community members come together to support local nonprofits advancing social justice causes.

The Big Share is one of our most important fundraising efforts of the year, raising critical funds for our programs that strengthen women’s leadership and civic engagement across Wisconsin. Thanks to the generosity of our incredible community, we raised $9,018 during The Big Share 2026. This support directly strengthens programs like our Policy Institute, Mentorship Program, and community-building events, helping women gain the tools, confidence, and connections to lead and advocate for meaningful change.

Join our email list for future The Big Share announcements and updates on how to get involved with this impactful annual event. Thank you for being part of this movement—together, we are building the next generation of leaders and advocates.

 

Feminism on Tap

Feminism on Tap is a recurring casual gathering hosted by Wisconsin Women's Network. These events are a great chance for social and gender justice advocates and other community members to network, develop ideas for collaboration, and discuss local efforts to advance the status of women and girls in Wisconsin.

WWN Music Bingo Night | Friday, April 24

Join us on Friday, April 24, from 6:00pm-8:30pm at State Line Distillery for Music Bingo and an evening of connection benefiting Wisconsin Women’s Network. Bingo cards will be available for $5 each, with opportunities to win a variety of prizes. Guests can also enjoy a specialty WWN cocktail, with a portion of proceeds supporting our programs. 

Laila’s Food Truck will be onsite serving Persian cuisine from this women-owned and operated business. Bring friends and enjoy a night of music, connection, and community with WWN! 

 

Women’s Equality Day

Women's Equality Day is observed annually to commemorate the passage of the 19th Amendment, guaranteeing some women the constitutional right to vote. More than a century later, women continue to experience voter inequalities due to disenfranchisement, barriers to access the polls, and restrictive voter ID laws. The Wisconsin Women’s Network recognizes Women’s Equality Day, in order to bring awareness to the inequalities—at the polls and beyond—faced by many Wisconsinites due to their gender, race, ethnicity, age, religion, sexuality, ability, identity, and socioeconomic status.

Our Women's Equality Day event serves as a fundraiser to sustain the Wisconsin Women’s Network and our work to advance the status of Wisconsin’s women and girls. Our 2026 Women’s Equality Day event will be on Thursday, August 27, at the Goodman Community Center in Madison.
