Because of the devastation happening in Ukraine – which includes 4 million displaced children – OnMilwaukee partnered up with numerous media outlets last week to raise money for UNICEF’s Humanitarian Relief in Ukraine and surrounding countries.
The fundraiser was originally set for one day, Friday, March 25, but was extended through the weekend and more then $20,000 was raised through this effort.
Participating outlets include Bustos Media; CBS58; Clear Channel Outdoor; Good Karma Broadcasting; iHeartMedia; Milwaukee Magazine; Milwaukee Radio Alliance; Milwaukee World Festivals, Inc; Pabst Theater Group; Wisconsin Center District; Milwaukee Brewers; and 88Nine Radio Milwaukee.
OnMilwaukee gives a huge thanks to our partners and everyone who donated. And a special shout-out to the Brewers Community Foundation that came in at the final hour to push the total over $20,000.
