I am a volunteer at The Food Pantry, and I see these clients every week, and can share that the volunteers and staff here are compassionate and welcoming. Clients can receive assistance once a week (Mon-Sat) by signing in and being assigned a volunteer shopper who will show them all the items and quantities available for their household. And the nicest side effect is the friendships I see forming as clients, staff, and volunteers work together to ease hunger. The work in the background that keeps this Pantry running smoothly is impressive, from the legal requirements to the goal of near-zero waste. What is not fit for human consumption is shared with farmers to feed their animals. Cardboard is recycled and plastic wrap is turned in for reuse in other weather-proof items such as furniture and decking. The dumpster is rarely filled with such careful oversight. If you are in need of food and are a resident of Waukesha County, which is a very big county, The Pantry is here for you. Bring an ID, and proof of residence, such as a utility bill or rental lease. If there are more in your household, bring ID for them also, such as birth certificates for children or school ID. We also have a pet program to help feed your cats and dogs, avoiding food-insecurity for everyone in your household. If you want to donate food, personal products or pet food, we are grateful. Door #5 is where you can drop items off. If you wish to hold a food drive cantact jeremy@waukeshafoodpantry.org and he will make it a simple event for all involved. You can also attend the 4th Annual "More Than a Meal" fundraiser being held on April 18, 2026 at The Golden Mast restaurant in Okauchee Lake. All are invited to join in the fun event! https://cbo.io/app/public/bidapp/morethanameal

I haven't been here in quite a while, but I wanted to give them a shout out and say what I know…read moreabout them. I cannot do them justice since they have many programs here to help members of our community that I haven't worked with. I have volunteered here a few times when I was a student through UW-Milwaukee. I helped bag groceries to be handed out to members of the community who needed help. They work very hard to create a balanced bag nutritionally each time such as protein, breakfast items, meat/ eggs, fruits/ veg, dessert (if they have any), soup, pasta/ rice, and a few other types of items I'm forgetting. When they have fresh fruits and vegetables they place them out for people to pick from. They also let people pick out bread items. The number of bags people receive depends on family size. They also have baby food items for those who need them. I also organized personal cleaning supplies (keep the good stuff, throw out the bad/ expired, put out the smaller stuff for people to pick out for free when they came to pick up food, etc). I thought this was really nice of them to have available, many people looked through the baskets once I started filling them. The staff is very kind to those who come in needing assistance and try to help. The area I worked in was basic but clean. They treat the community members that need help with respect (I've seen orgs where they don't treat people very well, this is not one of those orgs!). Great place to help the local community and for people to receive assistance. I've only scratched the surface as to what this nonprofit does for the community, check out their website. Time/ money/ personal donations brought here are not wasted!

These special people are trained to help children in the foster care/child welfare system. Kids matter Inc. will train volunteers in a 34 hour training program. Requirements include being at least 21 years of age, ability to communicate effectively, 14 hour commitment per month for fifteen months, and having an open mind and a kind heart. The Court Appointed Special Advocate gathers information about the children by communicating with the necessary parties involved such as family members, case managers and teachers, etc. The advocate then prepares a report to be presented at the court hearing and usually read by the judge. Lance Jones, JD and program manager at Kids Matter CASA, addressed the members of the Milwaukee Junior League at their membership meeting on November 17 at the University Club. He reminded the organization of the great success and achievements of this program and its tremendous positive impact upon the community and Milwaukee as a whole. Many foster children get to spend time with local professionals and benefit from their experience which helps influence youngsters to develop better habits and skills which help them look forward to establishing long term goals. Thanks to this program children are steered into a productive and educational environment that provides the necessary stimulation to help them stay focused in educational and community activities. The Milwaukee Junior League has partnered with Kids matter Inc. since 2004. They continue to promote the merits of volunteering for this highly recognized local project.
