At Mr. Bob’s Under the Bridge, we believe that kindness can change lives. What began with just six backpacks in 2007 has grown into a grassroots movement delivering hope, hygiene, and human connection to Milwaukee’s homeless and underserved.
Every Saturday our volunteers meet at Kosciuszko Park in Milwaukee with clothing, bedding, shoes, seasonal items, food and open hearts - connecting with our friends and making certain no one feels forgotten. Our shower trailer offers comfort and dignity during the warm weather months, and combined with dependable care year-round from our youth board members and growing volunteer base, we are able to provide the support our friends need.
We’re entirely volunteer-run, community-funded, and powered by compassion.
Fresh Start: A New Path Forward
We're proud to launch Fresh Start — a program dedicated to helping our friends take the next steps toward stability and self-sufficiency. Through personalized support with housing, addiction recovery, medical and dental care, mental health services, and rental assistance, Fresh Start offers the tools and guidance needed to rebuild lives and rejoin the community with confidence and hope.
Mr. Bob's strives to make a difference in the lives of our friends. We do this with entertaining fundraising events, offering refreshing showers with our mobile shower trailer, providing dependable weekly outreach with items needed for daily living, and serving the community with dedicated volunteer support.
