On June 14, 2024, Northcott Neighborhood House, along with the Juneteenth Planning Committee, presented the “2024 Juneteenth Milwaukee Freedom Ball,” at the Harley Davidson Museum, 400 W. Canal St. The mission of the ball is to empower the next generation by providing equitable access to higher education through scholarships funded by collaborative community financial support. Additionally, they celebrate community leaders, a father of the year, and a non-African American who has significantly helped Northcott fulfill its mission of serving disadvantaged residents.
