Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Fostering Friendships Festival! This festival offered a safe space for Native families to connect with their culture through crafts, games, and fun. We enjoyed food and family activities, including beading with elders, making medicine pouches, games & prizes, Native language games & resources, raffle drawings, and a bike giveaway
A special thank you to The Milwaukee Bicycle Collective and The Pere Marquette Foundation, the charitable arm of Council 524 of the Knights of Columbus of greater Milwaukee. Together, these two organizations made it possible for GLIIHC to giveaway 30 bicycles and bike helmets!
