The Gathering in the Media

Lyn Hildenbrand Gives Speech at Running Rebels for FEED MKE Mini-Grant

Milwaukee Grants Awarded For Food Recovery

Last Thursday, The Gathering of Southeast Wisconsin was one of eleven organizations to receive a FEED MKE Mini-Grant for our Fresh Produce Preservation Project. There are so many wonderful people and working pieces that come together to make this moment possible. Mayor Cavalier Johnson came to our Running Rebels site for the press conference that day and expressed the need to reduce food waste in the city of Milwaukee. He also reflected on fond memories of volunteering at The Gathering during Christmas time. This grant is important because it will enable us to further establish the program by solidifying key components for the program.
