Manitowoc County


This week's featured story: Jill Yindra! Seeing a need in the Mishicot School District, Jill started the Mishicot School District Food Pantry....

Jill's favorite things about our area:
I love Manitowoc Country for many reasons.  I work here, my family is from here, the beautiful lakeshore, my children attend school here and I can't think of a better place to raise my children.  My passion in life is to volunteer and help others.  This community affords me so many opportunities to do what I love.
