Event Description

Awareness and Fundraising WALK in support of the Community Projects for Seniors mission to brighten the everyday lives of senior citizens who reside in low-income housing throughout 50 cities within 8 counties of S.E. Wisconsin, by walking with us on Saturday, September 27, 2025.

 

Our meal & social programs, and care package delivery, helps fight loneliness, reduce social isolation, and build human connections.

 

We delivered a few hundred hot Christmas meals in 1986.  Currently, hundreds of volunteers deliver more than 3,000 free hot ready-to-eat meals every year on Easter Sunday, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day.

MINI-FUNDRAISER EVENT held personally by Jeffery Hansen

 

PACKER PARTY MINI-FUNDRAISER

Jeffery already raised $2,033.00 at his fun Packer Party Mini-Fundraiser.  He charged each guest $10 to attend his Packer Party at on Sunday, October 27, 2024, at the Urban Harvest Brewery in Milwaukee, Wi.  People also selected "Jeffery's Crew for a Cause" and donated, even if they could not attend.  All of the proceeds from Jeffery's mini-fundraiser go towards our overall goal to raise $65,000 at our WALK Fundraiser in September of 2025.  All of the proceeds from the WALK and all of the mini-fundraisers, go towards our holiday meal delivery programs for economically disadvantaged seniors.
