Description

Introducing to some and presenting to others: Public Allies Wisconsin. Come and Celebrate our growth! Deepening our Roots, Expanding our Reach Event Chairs: Lauren Feaster, Priya Bhatia, and MacArthur Antigua Public Allies has been a hub for connections, collaboration, growth, and change in Milwaukee for over 27 years. We have worked hard to plant and nurture the seeds of social justice in our communities and have watched as our corps members, alumni, and friends have flourished through their work and commitment. Public Allies, and the spaces we create, are unlike any other spaces. They are filled with love, laughter, and joy. Most of all, there is a unifying understanding that we have a duty to fight for and elevate our communities each and every day. We have an unyielding commitment to justice and to maintaining the beloved community that will help us get to that place. For the last 27 years, Public Allies has helped open the door for young leaders in the city, to transform the non profit sector and to help build a more just world. We have cultivated ally growth through our rigorous ten-month community leadership development program. We have worked with partners across Milwaukee to build strong networks and begin to shift the way we approach community work. In the last year we have expanded our reach by launching our site in Racine and Kenosha - Public Allies Racine/Kenosha (PARK). The inaugural class of PARK has continued the commitment to fighting for a more just world by ushering new leadership. AND WE ARE NOT DONE GROWING! This year, we hope to look toward the future as Public Allies Wisconsin and have decided to focus our annual event on the energy and stories that capture best the future of Public Allies and our alumni. To the current friends and family of Public Allies Milwaukee, we introduce you to Public Allies Wisconsin. To those who are new, we want to extend an invitation to come and get to know us, learn about where we have been and envision our future with us. We have exciting news about our growth and want to share it with all of our people! In solidarity, Annual Event Committee & PAWI Staff
