🎉 Woo-hoo, Amazon Prime Days are here! You can support Pillars while you hit *Add to Cart* 🛒

Pillars' Summer Donation Drive starts TODAY and will run through July 7th. It's completely digital- making it easier than ever to get involved and support basic needs for our Fox Cities neighbors!

👉 At Pillars we hold only two donation drives a year… and we currently have used up our winter stock of donated items! We are asking for your help filling our shelves this summer with critically low items.

🔌 Imagine sleeping in a shared space at a shelter and relying on your phone to call for ride, schedule appointments, or to wake up for work on time. If you simply do not have one or can’t afford one- that can be very problematic. At Pillars we rely on donations for items such as phone chargers, to help the burden of something as simple as keeping a phone charged.

👉 The Summer Donation Drive is accessible through Pillars’ Amazon wish list. All items will be shipped directly to Pillars. Access the Wish List here: https://www.amazon.com/registries/gl/guest-view/2ZMFUF77XH3GT?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_ggr-subnav-share_PMYCQC2H9DZEWYXMTM2D&blm_aid=0

Not an Amazon user? Support Pillars through Gift Cards! These can be shipped or dropped off at Pillars' main office: 605 E Hancock St. Appleton, WI 54911

Last week our Executive Director, Lisa and Housing Case Manager Eli attended the City of Appleton’s Pride Flag raising.

“According to The Trevor Project, 40 percent of LGBTQ+ young people reported a history of food insecurity, homelessness or unmet basic needs. This is why Pillars marks Pride Month as part of our mission.” -Lisa

👉 In 2025, volunteers donated more than 16,000 hours of time and talent to support Pillars. That is worth approximately $550,000! From answering phone calls, working the front desk, sorting and tracking donations, serving meals, providing meals, driving clients to community resources, assisting at our community events and so much more.

💙 Thank you to all our volunteers… Your dedication means more than you know!

Pillars was grateful to partake in African Heritage, Inc. Juneteenth Celebration hosted by The Ọmọladé Academy on Sunday, June 7th. The program featured Music by DJ Haze, a mobile exhibit from the Stone of Hope Popup Museum, and an array of Soul Food.

👉Our Community Learning Coordinator had some great interactions with community members, and good connections with organizations in the Fox Cities. “I feel it was fantastic that Pillars was represented there.”

The program included a libation ritual, the SiStar Society Academy of Excellence, the African Heritage Emerging Student Leaders Institute (AHESLI), and Dr. Ruben L Anthony, Jr's keynote speech, "Economic Resiliency: The Unfinished Work of Freedom”.

Team Pillars had an amazing time at Fox Valley Pride on Saturday! Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth and added color to our rainbow village 🏡

Together we’re working to make sure everyone feels at home in the Fox Cities.

Every day at Pillars, people take steps toward stability—whether it’s someone coming to shelter after weeks on the street, a parent reconnecting with support networks, or a family finally unlocking the door to their new home.

Will you join us in providing a strong foundation for our neighbors?

From now until July 4, your gift has the potential to go twice as far with the first $50,000 matched by generous donor.
