Schlitz Park raises $25,000 for Donald Driver Foundation

MILWAUKEE (September 15, 2022)—Schlitz Park made huge strides by donating 25,000 dollars in proceeds to better the lives of underprivileged children and families. Donations, raised for the Donald Driver Foundation, came from generous donors and participants who attended the annual fundraiser event hosted by Schlitz Park: The Milwaukee River Challenge— a 5k run/2-mile walk taking place in the heart of downtown Milwaukee.

Schlitz Park, a once historic brewery turned refined and modern office spaces, welcomed around 400 guests to the event. Their selected 2022 beneficiary’s mission is to, ‘display Strong Hands, Strong Minds and Loving Hearts as a hand up, not a hand out’. The Donald Driver Foundation’s core focus is to provide underprivileged children and families a helping hand through guidance and resources.

The event took runners and walkers through downtown Milwaukee. A stretch on the Riverwalk path, through Brewer’s Hill, and finished by wrapping around the 32-acre Schlitz Park campus. The fundraiser also included new activities and attractions including live music and the Tap Yard beer garden.

Schlitz Park contains 5 historic buildings and a multitude of tenants, including the Milwaukee Bucks headquarters. Beautifully restored in 2021, the remodeled campus has accomplished interiors that incorporate original doors and metal work from the original Schlitz Brewery. The remodeled buildings hold beautiful offices, murals and green spaces. As well as multiple workout facilities, lounge and game room areas.
