Lakefront Brewery Hosts 3rd Annual Period Supply Drive, Partnering With Milwaukee Diaper Mission on Their 7th Donation Event Together

Lakefront Brewery is proud to announce the return of its 3rd Annual Period Supply Drive, held in partnership with Milwaukee Diaper Mission, on Sunday, May 4th, from 11am to 5pm. Lakefront aims to surpass previous collections and help Milwaukee Diaper Mission continue the vital work of combating period poverty in the Milwaukee area. Since launching its first Period Supply Drive in 2023, Lakefront has collected nearly 17,000 period products at various events. Their 2024 drive alone brought in 6,275 products, making it Milwaukee Diaper Mission’s top period supply drive event for that year. With your support, they hope to collect even more this year.

To encourage donations, Lakefront Brewery will be offering $0.25 in gift card credit for each individual disposable pad or tampon donated, redeemable in their Beer Hall that day or during any future visit. There is no limit to the amount you can donate; the more you give, the more you get back.

Two in five menstruators have struggled to purchase period products in the past year due to a lack of income. Milwaukee Diaper Mission is a nonprofit basic needs bank that distributes essentials like period products through a network of trusted local social service agencies. With a 50% increase in demand over the past year, the organization now serves 1,800 menstruators and needs support to continue meeting a growing need.


What to Donate:

Milwaukee Diaper Mission accepts all period products, but super absorbent and overnight varieties are needed most. Only unopened packages will be accepted, and gift card credit will be provided for tampons and pads only.
