On Monday, May 17, 2021, former National Basketball Association player and Milwaukee native Mike Taylor (right) and his Taylor-Made Foundation MKE presented “The Essential Needs Assist,” a fresh food items and mental health awareness event.
The event provided more than 2,000 boxes of food including produce, milk, meat and more for local residents. On hand to help hand out the boxes were volunteers from the National Basketball Association, Alderman Russell W. Stamper, II, and volunteers from Unity Gospel House of Prayer, 1747 N. 12th Street, which served as the event location.
