Ways to Give
Holiday Giving
Help us bring joy to our students and families this Holiday Season. With your help, we can achieve our goal of providing gifts to 75 Next Door families and one gift for each of our nearly 1,000 students. Donors participate with their work group, place of worship, school, organization, or with friends and family. You can sponsor a whole class or a family based on your giving interest.

Walmart Registry for Good

Next Door is now part of the Walmart Registry for Good program – a charitable initiative that links nonprofit organizations with Walmart to help them provide supplies they need to support their cause.
Through this program, you can purchase Walmart gift cards, at various values, for Next Door families in need of additional financial assistance right now. The cards will provide emergency relief for families to buy food, clothes, and other essential household items from Walmart.
Gift cards will ship directly to Next Door.
Host a Book Drive
Next Door’s Books for Kids program collects and distributes close to 75,000 new and gently-used books each year to Next Door students and children in Milwaukee to help build their home libraries. Due to the impact of COVID-19 on our operations, we are behind on these collections and need your help!
We want to ensure that our students (ages 0-5) receive three books a month, including one new title. We distribute additional books to children in the community through our Books for Kids Mobile Library and special requests.
You can help by hosting a book drive for Books for Kids. This is a perfect opportunity to do with your neighbors, school, congregation, youth group, or workplace. We will work with you on a safe pick-up at your site or delivery to Next Door. See the link above for details on the type of books we need and contact information.
