Match day again:
You may have heard of the Greater Milwaukee Foundation’s Match Day event, where local charities receive matching funds for every dollar raised between now and March 19th. The Milwaukee Rescue Mission is grateful to again be a Match Day recipient!Here’s how it works. Visit matchdaymke.razoo.com/Milwaukee-Rescue-Mission between now and March 19th and make a donation. All gifts given through that website will be proportionately matched by the Greater Milwaukee Foundation based on the total amount raised by each organization.
But that’s not all – give today and your gift will receive an additional match! To kick off our Match Day campaign, a generous couple who are longtime friends of MRM have offered an additional $25,000 match! This means that TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY, February 27th if you make a gift through the Match Day website your gift will be MATCHED TWICE to feed, clothe, shelter and help transform even more lives of the hurting in our community!
Thursday (March 13) is match day at Milwaukee Rescue Mission, and it is an especially good day to make a donation to the Rescue Mission:

Thank you for generously giving to help Milwaukee’s hurting and homeless on Thursday!
