The Gathering

The Gathering serves  ten meals each week at three sites to more than 100,000 of Milwaukee's hungry and homeless each year. 

Fox Point Lutheran Church is scheduled to provide  a group of around 16 adults and teens needed to arrive at the site at 9:45 a.m. to prepare food, hand out tickets, serve the meal, and clean up. Additional volunteers are needed to provide milk and cookies. 

Please note:

• No sandals please.  Shoes must be close-toed.  
•  Dress appropriately - no short shorts  and no bare midriffs.  Wear clothes you do not mind getting dirty.
• No cell phone use is permitted in the dining room during the meal time.
• The Gathering provides plastic aprons, gloves, and paper hats, but you may wear your own clean baseball cap if you choose.
• Please leave your valuables at home.

Often groups ask what they can bring with them.  While volunteering is the most important, we are always in need of:

• Coffee
• Cookies
• Fresh milk

Time:  9:45am to 1:30pm.

Location: 1300 W Fond du lac Avenue, Milwaukee (Its a big 3 story, triangular red brick building. GPS will be a bit confusing because it will take you around the block because the building is on a cul-du-sac.  Click the link below to view map. 

Easiest route: Take 12th street to Vine, then take a left and go one block. You will end up on 13th. The building will be right in front of you.) See enclosed picture of map.
