community engaged fellowThe La Crosse Community Foundation is excited to have Paige Hageman as our new fellow for the upcoming year, joining us through the Community Engaged Fellowships initiative at the University of Wisconsin – La Crosse.

The Community Engaged Fellowships program was established last year by longtime La Crosse educators Ron and Jane Rada. Its purpose is to provide closely mentored internships for undergraduate and graduate students, promoting community engagement and supporting philanthropy.

Paige’s impressive resume reflects her commitment to academic excellence and community service. On track to earn a bachelor of science degree in political science, legal studies, and technical writing next spring from the University of Wisconsin – La Crosse, Paige plans to attend law school next year. She has consistently excelled, earning a place on the dean’s list, and her involvement in campus volunteer work further demonstrates her dedication to making a positive impact.

Our recent fellow, Gretta Kraus, who graduated in May from UW-L, impressed us greatly with her dedication and commitment to making a difference. We have no doubt that Paige will continue in that vein and go on to make her own remarkable contributions to our community and society as a whole.
