Help make sure Milwaukee gets its fair share by pledging to participate in the 2010 census.
At the March member meeting, learn why the 2010 census is an important tool for Milwaukeeans to receive the resources they need like health care, job training, child care and schools.
Saturday, March 20th at 11 a.m. Nonprofit Center (2819 W Highland Blvd.)
After the meeting, join 9to5 staff in community outreach, collecting signatures from Milwaukeeans who pledge to participate in the 2010 census.
In 2000, 1/3 of Milwaukeeans went uncounted which means families did not get their fair share. By reaching out to 2,010 Milwaukeeans, 9to5 can help ensure an accurate 2010 census, which means funds for critical programs like job support and BadgerCare.
For more information about the 2010 census and to pledge online visit www.9to5.org/census.
Pledge cards are also available at the 9to5 office (207 E Buffalo Street, Suite 211). Sign one for yourself and take a few to have your friends and family sign.
To get involved, contact angie@9to5.org.
