Do Good With Food Supports Children's Wisconsin
|
The mission of Do Good With Food is to unite the restaurant community in support of Children's Wisconsin. The fundraiser began as a collaboration between grateful parents Gino and Leanne Fazzari, the Milwaukee Kitchen Cabinet, the Wisconsin Restaurant Association and Children’s Wisconsin.
For 2026, WRA's Milwaukee Kitchen Cabinet partnered with 57 Milwaukee-area restaurants for the annual Do Good with Food fundraiser held on Thursday, August 27, 2026. All participating restaurants donated a percentage of their sales to Children's Wisconsin to help make Wisconsin’s kids the healthiest in the nation. This year was the best year yet, raising $104,473! In the seven years this event has occurred, Do Good With Food has raised over $393,000! |
Since it’s inception in 2019, Do Good With Food has raised more than $393,000 for kids and families.
