Great Lakes Adult and Teen Challenge Gala and Auction
2023-10-26 16:00 (America/Chicago)
“Great Lakes Adult & Teen Challenge is a one-year, live-in Christian discipleship program for adults struggling with life controlling problems such as drugs and alcohol. Their goal is to help students become established in society through holistic recovery and Christ-based mentoring, education, and job training.
Teen Challenge was originally founded in 1958 with the intention of providing a safe place for drug addicts and alcoholics to come off the streets and learn a new, responsible way of living.

Great Lakes Adult & Teen Challenge holds true to this divine purpose and provides effective, low-cost drug rehab, faith-based residential recovery programs for both men and women struggling with life controlling addictions.
Their drug and alcohol recovery centers are located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and offer a combination of group and personal studies, duties and responsibilities, and work therapy. This allows participants to learn and develop useful skills in order to re-enter society as sober, stable, and productive individuals.

38th Annual Black and White Ball
2023-11-04 18:00
“The Annual Black and White Ball benefits Greater Milwaukee Urban League (GMUL) programs.
For more than a century, the GMUL has stood in the gap, working hard to empower communities and change lives for African Americans living in the greater Milwaukee area.
GMUL was founded in 1919 and is one of 90 affiliates across 34 states and the District of Columbia. The founders, a racially diverse coalition, believed that working together, the lives of every American can be made better. GMUL partnerships in Milwaukee and Wisconsin reflect that same diversity. GMUL’s commitment to empower communities and change lives is as strong now as it was in 1919.
Collaborating with partners, donors, and staff, GMUL offers programs in education and employment that open doors to opportunities that give individuals and families the chance to improve their lives and their community. GMUL’s advocacy and civic engagement efforts tackle serious issues impacting the community and seek partnerships and solutions to successfully address them.”
