Right now, due to a delay in November FoodShare benefits, nearly 261,000 of our neighbors in the greater Milwaukee area - 235,000 people in Milwaukee County, 16,000 in Waukesha County, 7,000 in Washington County and 3,000 in Ozaukee County - are facing food shortages. Local food pantries are already experiencing an uptick in their services and community support is critical. You can make a difference today.
Please join us in helping to prevent our neighbors from going hungry by making a gift to local food pantries, Hunger Task Force, Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin and/or contributing to Greater Milwaukee Foundation’s Basic Needs Fund. Even a small contribution can make a big difference. You can also volunteer your time to help these organizations meet the growing need.
Greater Milwaukee Foundation Basic Needs Fund
The Basic Needs Fund supports organizations that provide food, shelter, and clothing for individuals and families with limited financial resources.
Give to the Basic Needs Fund
Foundation donors may make a gift from the donor portal or by contacting your philanthropic adviser.
This list was created based on input from the Greater Milwaukee Food Pantry Coalition and was augmented to include additional food pantries from Ozaukee, Washington and Waukesha counties.
