This week, yet ANOTHER inspiring Milwaukee woman ... 

Batter up! On the cusp of Baseball's Opening Day we bring Cecelia Gore to the plate for this week's episode. 

Cecelia was nominated for the podcast in Season 2 Episode 19 by Venice Williams - and wow, we can see why! For 14 seasons now she has served as the Executive Director of the Brewers Community Foundation where she supports dreamers throughout Milwaukee who are meeting basic needs and providing unique educational, health and recreation related services to our community.  By leveraging the power of baseball to bring the community together, Cecelia is knocking it out of the park: supporting 160 different nonprofits in Milwaukee in 2022 alone! 

Listen as we talk about:

• the seeds of community service planted in her by her parents - and the task at Wisconsin Gas that got her motivated to finish her college degree
• following the twists and turns on her own career trajectory - to inspire others who may have had some detours
• the women who have nurtured her along the way
• her seasoned vantage point on Milwaukee's most pivotal issues - and how you can get started (hint: it begins with a pitch!)

Links and Locals we love:

• Brewers Community Foundation (find out more about the annual 5k/10k walk and BCF Weekends at American Family Field)
