We are passionate about giving.
Every year our team searches for new opportunities to make a difference in Waukesha County. Over the years we have given back to over 100 unique charities including Habitat for Humanity, the Food Pantry of Waukesha, numerous charity races, and many more! If there is a charity in the Milwaukee area that you’re passionate about, tell us how we can help. Here are just a few that Shakespeare has given back to:
Habitat for Humanity Team Build
In the fall of 2018, the Shakespeare team along with our dedicated clients were able to help build a home in Waukesha County. Take a look at photos from our day!

Life's Connection - Change of Heart
Life's Connection is an organization that mentors moms and dads who are facing an unexpected pregnancy. Moms facing an abortion, often change their hearts and their minds after they have already paid the deposit on an abortion. Often the downpayment causes them to feel obligated to proceed with the abortion, with no way out. Life's Connection Change of Heart Program helps remove that obstacle by reimbursing moms the money they paid to the abortion clinic, informing them that they have the right to say "NO" at any time, which frees them to choose life.
We have and will continue to sponsor the Change of Heart Program going forward.
Shakespeare 5K Run Walk
Each year the team at Shakespeare participates in the Shakespeare 5K Run Walk in Milwaukee, WI to benefit the Marquette University's Association of English Graduate Students. Take a look at photos from our 2018 run!
American Lung Association's Fight for Air Climb
One of our favorite events is the American Lunch Associations Fight for Air Climb held at the US Bank building in Milwaukee. Each year we aim to grow our climbing team larger than the previous year. View more photos!
In celebration of reaching over $100 million dollars in assets managed, we gave back $100 each Friday for 100 Fridays to charities to bring awareness and help make a difference. Take a look at the lucky recipients! (Thank you, Lani Becker, for this wonderful idea!)
The Food Pantry of Waukesha County provides food, hope and dignity to county residents in need, and advocates to increase awareness of hunger in the community through collaborative action.
