FLIP THE SCRIPT ON YOUR GIVING THIS YEAR!
CIVIC MUSIC MKE is proud to be one of over 40 Milwaukee-area nonprofits leading a coordinated effort to emphasize the importance of supporting our communities through a campaign called Giving First on Tuesday, November 23.
The Giving First date flips the script by coming one week before Giving Tuesday, a day of giving for many non-profits that traditionally falls after Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber-Monday shopping. Local nonprofits put the community first all year long and hope the community will put them first this giving season.
Giving First was successfully piloted by the Urban Ecology Center (UEC) in 2020. When other organizations asked to borrow the idea, a coordinated effort was born.
Check out the complete list of participating MKE organizations.
Music lifts us up, brings us joy and brings us together.
