Charity

Our community is important to us and through the years we have supported local charities and causes. In late 2009 we decided to take this even further and actively support a charity each month. Due to the generous contributions from our wonderful and caring customers and those from Gilles's, this program has been a terrific success. Thank you for helping us give back to those in need in our community. 

If you have a suggestion for a charity for us to highlight, please let us know by using this link. When choosing a charity we focus on those that help people directly and have administrative costs of 10% or less.

The Charity of the Month for November is the Milwaukee Rescue Mission. Each day the Rescue Mission provides food and shelter for up to 400 men, women and children. In addition to meeting immediate needs, the Rescue Mission provides the training, support and guidance those they serve need to rebuild their lives. Find out more about them at milmission.org
