  • Carnival Milwaukee:  UEDA’s annual fundraiser is “a party with a purpose” and brings together a large diverse population each February to celebrate our diversity with a night of food, live entertainment and fun that highlights our cultural treasures and local businesses.  Learn more at www.carnivalmilwaukee.com and see photos from last year’s event here.

  • Coalition for Advancing Transit: A regional coalition of over 310 members that represents individual citizens, local businesses, labor organizations, environmental and community groups, faith-based organizations and civic leaders who believe that a vibrant, modern regional transit system is needed to ensure the economic viability of SE WI.  In addition, regional transit provides a vital link connecting thousands of workers to jobs.  The Coalition formed in October 2008 as a result of UEDA’s Community Development Summit; UEDA provides administrative support and assistance to their efforts to support a regional transit agenda.   Learn more at www.coalitionforadvancingtransit.com.

  • Take Root Milwaukee: A group of over 32 members that work collaboratively to preserve and promote sustainable, diverse neighborhoods by encouraging and maintaining homeownership.  Take Root Milwaukee members include mortgage lenders, nonprofit housing counseling agencies, Realtors and other individual community partners that have pledged to uphold industry standards in the delivery of services and promote the use of homeownership education.   UEDA is the administrative agency for Take Root Milwaukee, which was formed in 2009 as a result of Mayor Tom Barrett’s Milwaukee Foreclosure Partnership Initiative.  Learn more at www.takerootmilwaukee.org or view Take Root Milwaukee's 2011 Impact Report.
