Hello Lisa,


Welcome April, a month dedicated to celebrating the heart and soul of our organization – our volunteers! During National Volunteer Appreciation Month, and always, it's with immense gratitude and admiration that we extend our heartfelt thanks to each and every one of our volunteers who dedicate their time, energy, and passion to making a difference in our community. Their selflessness and commitment uplift those around them and inspire us all.


At WE CAN, our mission is to empower and support Cape Cod women in building pathways to self-sufficiency and stability. Joining the WE CAN community means participants will experience an empowering, respectful, and safe environment where unique, tailored services address each woman’s needs. This month, we honor and recognize the invaluable contributions of our volunteers, knowing that without their unwavering support, our mission would not be possible. Together, we celebrate the impact of volunteerism and the extraordinary individuals who make it all possible.
