Gordon Park Friends is recruiting volunteer poll workers for the two elections in 2025. Volunteer poll workers earned $15,000 by working five elections in 2024. All that money goes back to improve the park that we love - so this is a great way to donate to Gordon Park, even if you can't give money from your own account!
Trees for Gordon Park Campaign
Gordon Park Friends, in partnership with Milwaukee County, is kicking off an exciting campaign to plant 20 trees over the next year, and we need your help!
It is very important to create canopies of shade trees that will provide cooling areas in our park. A request was made to Milwaukee County Parks to replace dying trees and add trees in hot, open green space areas.
Although the county supports our mission of providing shade trees for the comfort of park users, monetary resources are not available for this cause. Provided we raise the funds for new trees, they will plant them. Initially, our goal is to raise $10,000 to fund the acquisition, planting, monitoring and maintenance of twenty new shade trees. Please help us reach our goal!
