Message from Mayor Johnson - 2022 Annual Holiday Drive

Please join me in supporting the 2022 Annual Holiday Drive before it ends!

The City of Milwaukee and Milwaukee County's Annual Holiday Drive kicked off on November 21. We have enjoyed strong support from community members during the campaign. We ask that you consider making a donation before the Drive concludes on Monday, December 12.

As a reminder, The Annual Holiday Drive is intended to spread holiday cheer to Milwaukee-area individuals and families seeking necessary goods for two fantastic organizations: Journey House and Running Rebels. Learn more about each organization below.

Running Rebels:

The Running Rebels Community Organization engages the community, youth, and their families, prevents involvement in gangs, drugs, violence, and the juvenile justice system, intervenes and guides youth by assisting them with making positive choices, and coaching youth through their transition into adulthood. Running Rebels accomplishes this through building relationships with youth and providing the resources and skills necessary for them to become thriving, connected, and contributing adult members of our community.

Journey House:

Journey House has been transforming lives in and around Milwaukee since 1969 empowering families to move out of poverty by offering four core programs: Adult Education, Youth Leadership and Athletics, THRIVE Workforce Development, and Family Engagement.

The Annual Holiday Drive is a reminder of the great capacity of Milwaukee area residents and businesses caring for those in need. If you have not done so already, I hope you will consider making a donation so that we can continue to create a healthy, thriving community as we begin 2023.

Sincerely,

Cavalier Johnson

Mayor
