LISC Milwaukee Celebrates 25 Years!

10.25.2019

LISC Milwaukee celebrated our 25th Anniversary Luncheon on Thursday, September 12, 2019 at the Hilton Milwaukee City Center. The event was an opportunity to recognize 25 years of inclusive and equitable development in Milwaukee neighborhoods. The Luncheon also served as a fundraiser and opportunity for LISC’s supporters and partners to renew their commitment to LISC’s mission to invest in Milwaukee neighborhood organizations and projects. Our investments create communities of choice where families with modest means can live with pride and have access to quality, affordable housing, and adequate community and retail services.

We want to thank everyone who came to celebrate with us. The program consisted of distinguished speakers including WHEDA Executive Director, Joaquin Altoro and our inaugural Donald J. Schuenke Award. We were honored to have Annie Donovan, COO of LISC, as our keynote speaker who was joined by our presenting sponsor, JPMorgan Chase & Co.  We are grateful to our partners, present and not, who make LISC’s work possible.
