Ways to Help
-
Volunteer Fundraiser
Do you know how to get people excited about a grand vision and give? Your job would be make sure that Winter Break can pull off one-of-a-kind activities. We're looking for someone to take the lead on developing relationships with sponsors.

Day of Event Volunteers
Event volunteers can help with setting up, cleaning up, directing attendees, or even shoveling snow. You would be part of the team keeping attendees safe, happy, and having fun. If you don't mind being out in the cold, you’re outgoing and accepting of all, and you enjoy the excitement of an event, this is the spot for you.
Imagine a Milwaukee where people enjoy all 4 seasons, not just summer. We need something to look forward to after the holidays have ended, but the grey skies have not. People deserve an opportunity to find joy in being in nature and moving their bodies safely in the cold.
Winter Break is a free outdoor event for all ages, experience levels, bodies, and genders. It promotes gentle outdoor recreation in an approachable way. This event goes on no matter the weather. If we have snow and ice, that unlocks more activities!
Winter Break 2024 was a success
