The MatchUp Door County program connects local businesses with experienced individuals seeking part-time work.

Through an innovative matching process, the program helps participants find fulfilling part-time roles while supporting businesses in filling critical staffing gaps. It’s a community-driven effort to strengthen the local economy and create meaningful impact throughout Door County.

In 2024, the program successfully placed 22 individuals and in 2025, 32 individuals, into roles that matched their skills and interests, across 55 businesses throughout Door County, with nearly half of these positions offering year-round employment. These businesses spanned diverse sectors, including retail, hospitality , and nonprofits or government organizations. Most were over 60 years old and have lived in Door County for 15+ years. Many join the program to find purpose, social interaction, and a sense of community connection. 

This program has been gifted to We are Hope in 2026.  For more information, contact Amanda LaRoche Program Coordinator.
