Community Comes Together for Back-to-School | Milwaukee News

School’s back in session, and communities are rallying to gear up kids with backpacks, notebooks, pens, and more—plus free meals, music, and fun. From Jehovah Es Tú Salvador’s August 8th giveaway to Rocketship Southside’s Back-to-School Jam on the 15th, local orgs, churches, and even bubble waffle shops are stepping in. Events like Your Move MKE’s Hip-Hoppin Giveaway and Gordo’s 100 backpack drop-offs show it’s not just about supplies—it’s about building community, celebrating kids, and ensuring no student is left behind. With block parties, haircuts, and Native-focused events, this is a city-wide effort to make sure every child starts the year ready to learn.
