Catholic Charities closed the doors to the Wausau Community Warming Center on April 15, 2013. We are planning to re-open our doors on November 1, 2013. Our season will run from November 1 through March 31, 2014. Many volunteers will once again be needed to have a successful year. As a reminder, volunteer opportunities are listed below. If you have any questions, you may contact Diane Borchardt at 715-849-3311. Volunteer Trainings will be posted on this page as they are scheduled.
