MIAD will commit $10,000 to match dollar for dollar donations by students, faculty, staff and alumni to selected nonprofit organizations in the City of Milwaukee fighting racial injustice.
 
Participants should make their donations directly to any of the organizations below, and then submit a gift receipt from the organization(s) to annekirschmann@miad.edu. The college will honor donations to these organizations made from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 until the $10,000 total is reached.
