Give the gift of hope on this Giving Tuesday. The West Allis Police Department's WISH Program (Women Initiate Self-Healing and Hope), a support group for women who are in/have been in an abusive relationship, is asking for donations to their Holiday Gift Drive to support the women and children who are often starting over after getting out of abusive relationships. Many of these women struggle financially making it difficult to provide holiday gifts for their children. The support from the community will ensure these women and children enjoy the season.
How You Can Help:

New, unwrapped gifts can be dropped off at the West Allis Police Department Records Unit, 11301 W Lincoln Avenue, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. until Dec. 13.
