The Green Bay Packers Foundation has awarded four $125,000 impact grants to nonprofit organizations in Milwaukee that serve those in need.
The grants are all matching grants and will require the organizations to raise an additional $125,000 to secure the donation from the Packers Foundation. The grant recipients include:
All-In Milwaukee, an organization that embraces partners in the community to be "All-In" and develop future leaders of color for the city of Milwaukee and the state of Wisconsin. The organization is grounded in social justice actions, as it opens doors for students that are too often overlooked, matching donor partners with students. It is a college completion program that includes financial aid and extensive advising, program and career development support for students to excel through college and matriculate into the Milwaukee workforce. The $125,000 impact grant and matching funds will support the costs of All-In Milwaukee's scholar and program support services.
Journey House, Inc., which empowers families on Milwaukee's Near Southside to move out of poverty by offering adult education, youth development, workforce readiness, and family engagement programs. The $125,000 impact grant and matching funds will support Journey House's program THRIVE STEAM Forward (Transforming Healthy Reliable Inspired Valued Employable Interns in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics). The program addresses Milwaukee's shortage of STEAM talent by growing their own through the creation of "Silicon Valley-like" STEAM labs and spaces to inspire innovation, expose youth to STEAM career pathways, and develop STEAM skills by investing in 120 young Milwaukeeans.
