Our mission: Having fun, impacting lives.
Through our many events, random acts of kindness, outreach and advocacy efforts, we strive to create a more inclusive and supportive environment, empowering individuals and enriching the whole Ozaukee County community. We do this with a focus on individuals with disabilities, establishing memorials and community impact initiatives.
Getting involved with Mel’s Charities can be a personally fulfilling way to impact lives in our community. Whether you’re a Doer who volunteers, a Donor who supports our mission with events on our behalf, a Door Opener who introduces others to our team, a Dreamer with big ideas… or all four of them…you’re making a difference you can see every day.
