Hope for Homeless: Over 400 Served at annual Project Homeless Connect
November 9, 2016
With your help we were able to serve an estimated 419 men, women and children at this year’s event. In only one day we were able to give these individuals access to clothing, information on housing, hygiene items, and many other valuable resources.
United Way is a proud supporter of the City of Milwaukee’s Project Homeless Connect, and we thank you for your ongoing support and dedication to ending homelessness in Greater Milwaukee.
