WISCONSIN FAITH VOICES FOR JUSTICE:
MOVING FROM CHARITY TO JUSTICE

June 8, 2022
UPCOMING EVENTS

Join us tomorrow night for our Tenth Annual Celebration!

I am excited to see you all tomorrow night! Please come celebrate with us ten years of faithfully fighting for justice!

YOU are a friend who sustains Wisconsin Faith Voices for Justice through your donations, your advocacy, and your volunteerism.

THANK YOU for helping us work toward a more just and equitable society.
Because of you we are lifting the voices of those who are underserved and marginalized. Because of you we are addressing some of the most critical threats to our state including racial justice, immigrant and worker’s rights and voting rights. Because of you we are upholding the dignity of all human beings.

We invite you to join us virtually
at our Annual Celebration,
Revival is Coming
June 9, 2022 at 7 PM.
Click HERE to RSVP

Revival means "a renewed attention to or interest in something.” As we renew and strengthen our commitment to social and economic issues facing our state, we ask that you join us in this Celebration. Hear updates about the work you make possible, take joy in our successes, and share our vision for the future.

During the Celebration, we will be delighted to honor three champions for justice:

Judge Derek Mosley , Presiding Judge, Milwaukee Municipal Court, for his outstanding work on behalf of at-risk youth in Milwaukee

Rev. Dr. Marcus Allen, pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist Church and president of the African American Council of Churches in Madison, for his outstanding leadership in fighting for equity, justice, and civil rights.

Rev. Karen Hagen, retiring pastor at Tippecanoe Presbyterian Church in Milwaukee, an incredible activist on behalf of the hungry and unhoused in Milwaukee, and a tremendous bridge builder between faith communities.

YOU HAVE THE POWER TO HELP
We also want to mark the occasion by raising $15,000. These funds will allow us greater capacity, outreach, and training for our new initiative to address white supremacy and racism confronting school districts in suburban and rural, rich and poor communities throughout Wisconsin.

Will you help us expand our reach, with a gift to our Annual Celebration? Make your gift at https://donorbox.org/wfvj. Your gift made prior to the event will be used to fund a matching gift appeal at the Annual Celebration.

Let us remember how far we have come, look ahead to how much farther we have to go, and pledge to work together to create real change.

Thank you! You are the power behind this work.
In gratitude,

Bonnie

Wisconsin Faith Voices for Justice's Vision for the Future:

On June 9, WFVJ will celebrate our tenth anniversary of fighting faithfully for justice. In this new video, Executive Director Rabbi Bonnie Margulis tells us her vision for the future of our state. What would Wisconsin look like if all our goals were met, if everyone had a safe and comfortable place to live, if everyone had enough to eat, if we all could exercise our right to vote without barriers, if racism, misogyny, Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, anti-LGBTQ+, white supremacy were all a thing of the past?

Please join us on June 9th at 7:00pm for our virtual Annual Celebration, hear how far we've come, how our work has grown, and our plans to move ahead to make those goals a reality.
