We need your help on August 18 or 19^th!!!

Block Build MKE is our biggest event of the year, where volunteers and community partners come together to transform a neighborhood block in one weekend. On this weekend, corporations and volunteers work on up to 30 homes that are owned by low-income elderly, veterans, and/or those living with a disability. The two days are full of activity—hundreds of volunteers donate their skills and sweat equity to complete numerous repairs and beautification updates.

Revitalize Milwaukee’s Block Build 2022 effort mobilized over 400 volunteers to renovate 24 homes of low income, veteran, disabled and minority owners, providing much needed safety, security and accessibility upgrades.

As a volunteer, we will be supporting WasteCap to collect material from the groups helping at the event and recycle them back into the local economy and keep it out of the landfill. This will help Revitalize MKE to recycle and reuse the event’s waste and support our GREEN efforts now and for future generations.

There are multiple shifts available over two days.  Feel free to choose more than one shift, even if you are available for an hour. You can bring others as a guest as long as they are over 18 years old.

This year the Block Build neighborhood is Muskego Way.  Muskego Way neighborhood runs diagonally from West Becher Street to South 16th in the southeast corner of the neighborhood, and South Muskego Avenue, which runs at a diagonal from West Becher to West Greenfield.

In addition to registering on the IFMA site, all participants will also need to register with Revitalize Block Build, with the link below to get t-shirt sizes and lunch counts.
