CAMPAIGN TOOLKIT
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT of this truly remarkable and historic undertaking in Milwaukee that will honor two very important groups of people: the women leaders who were the driving force in building the historic complex now called The Soldiers Home on the bluff overlooking Miller Park; and the Wisconsin veterans who went off to defend our freedoms since the days of the Civil War.
For over ten years we’ve been working to restore this historic campus to the purpose for which it was intended - the service of veterans - and we’re in the home stretch. This $4.25 million fundraising campaign will leverage an additional $36 million in private investment to restore six historic buildings on the Soldiers Home grounds and provide 101 units of housing for homeless veterans, community space and on-site veterans services.
This toolkit provides helpful resources to share the Soldiers Home story with your network. Together, we can return these buildings to their original purpose: The service of veterans.
