Join Tikkun Ha-Ir for our Annual Holiday Gifts Donation Drive! We are collecting NEW items, including winter clothing, hygiene kits, and more for our service partner organizations. These items will then be sorted and delivered to Nia Imani, Cathedral Center, and other organizations serving our Milwaukee community. Rather than hand out items, donations will be set up so individuals and families can “shop” for what they need, choose gifts for their children, and celebrate the holidays with joy and dignity.
There are many ways to give to Holiday Gifts, and we hope you’ll join us where you can!
Donate Items
There are two ways to donate items to Holiday Gifts!
1. Visit the Giving Channukiot – You can bring items from the list below to any of the following organizations: CBINT, CEEBJ, Shalom, Sinai, Hillel, JCC, Lake Park Synagogue, MJDS, or Temple Menorah.
Needed Items (NEW ONLY)
Winter clothing and coats for adults and children
Hygiene products and kits
Socks, underwear, pajamas, and loungewear
Books and toys
Electronic accessories

There will be a bin for donations at each location, as well as a Giving Channukiah! Feel free to take a “candle” or two from The Giving Channukiot with specific requests from our partner organizations.
2. Donate Online via Amazon – We understand that the holidays are a busy time, so we’ve made it easy to donate needed items! Visit our Wishlist, purchase through Amazon, and select “Sami Stein Avner Gift Registry Address” at checkout.
