There’s still time to step up.
On Saturday, July 27, Dairy Cares of Wisconsin will host its ninth annual Garden Party in De Pere, benefiting Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin. Businesses and individuals have the opportunity to participate in this always-memorable evening of friendship and philanthropy.
Over the past eight years, Dairy Cares has gifted a combined total of more than $1 million to Children’s Hospital, a Milwaukee-based medical system that provides health care services to some of the most critically ill children. While the bulk of these funds have been raised by Wisconsin dairy farmers and dairy industry partners, the participation and support of any interested organizations or individuals is welcome.
“Every sponsor, every donor, plays a key role in supporting these children and their families,” says Jim Ostrom, dairyman and co-founder of Dairy Cares. “We can all make a difference in their lives.”
Last year, Children’s Hospital named its new simulation lab in honor of Dairy Cares for the group’s ongoing support. The lab is an experiential learning space that helps doctors and nurses practice and prepare for medical crises and worst-case scenarios.
