Why Should You Support Urban Nature?

I am fundraising in support of urban nature and the UEC because... 

Urban nature is a necessity.  As cities continue to grow, natural habitats and biodiversity are rapidly decreasing. However, with proper planning, community support and dedication to a cause, we can create a city where both people and nature thrive - as evident by the efforts of the Urban Ecology Center and YOU! 

Benefits of Urban Nature in Milwaukee: 

  • Improves learning and mental performance 
  • Provides a safe place to play and wonder 
  • Encourgaes environmental stewardship 
  • Inspires sustainable solutions 
  • Builds climate resilency 
  • and brings SO MUCH LIFE to our city! 

100% of the funds raised through HKE MKE stay in our community and help the Urban Ecology Center:

  • Teach tens of thousands of urban youth about science and nature through hands-on experiences in green spaces in their own neighborhoods
  • Manage over 80 acres of native habitat in three Milwaukee parks
  • Study the health of wildlife populations in Milwaukee including, turtles, frogs, mammals, invertebrates, snakes, and bats
  • Connect community members to unique resources such as outdoor recreation and continued education opportunities.
