Milwaukee North Sunrise Rotary Club has launched its 2026 Christmas With Dignity fundraising campaign, inviting residents, businesses, and community organizations to help Milwaukee-area families celebrate the holidays with choice, pride, and dignity.

Sponsored by the club since 2017, Christmas With Dignity serves approximately 12 to 13 families each year. Rather than receiving preselected gifts, participating parents choose and purchase new toys, books, and clothing for their children at deeply reduced prices. Donations from the community help provide the quality merchandise that makes this empowering experience possible.

The program also extends its impact beyond the holidays. The modest amounts paid by participating parents are donated to charities they select, giving families the opportunity both to provide for their children and to give back to causes they value.

Milwaukee North Sunrise Rotary is seeking donations of all sizes to purchase gifts and expand the number of families the campaign can serve. Individuals, local businesses, civic groups, and other community partners are encouraged to contribute.

How to Donate

Community members can make an online donation at mnsunriserotary.org. Contributions are requested by December 15, 2026.
