Trinity Outreach

We are committed to sharing our resources with others in need within our communities of Wauwatosa and Milwaukee and also to those around the world. Trinity works hard to share both our time and our resources.

Rummage Sale 2025

Trinity hosts a rummage sale every other year to support Outreach. Proceeds benefit two organizations selected by the Outreach committee. Recent sales have supported Sojourner Family Peace Center and Habitat for Humanity Faith Home. Rather than pricing items, we accept freewill donations and have raised nearly $2,000 each year.

Sale Dates:

  • Friday, June 20 | 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM

  • Saturday, June 21 | 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Donations Accepted:
Books, household items, toys, linens, small appliances, sporting goods, etc.
Please do not bring furniture or clothing.
Clothing donations are welcome in the red barrel for Fr. Gene’s or Street Angels.

Drop-off Times:

  • Starting June 7 (no donations after June 18)

  • Bring items to the parish office during open hours or on Sundays

  • Items will be stored on the east end of the parish hall

We need volunteers!
Help is needed during the sale and for clean-up on Saturday at noon. Purple Heart will pick up remaining items on Monday, June 23.

Awesome Auction

Mark your calendars for Nov. 1, 2025!

The Outreach Committee’s biggest fundraiser of the year is the Awesome Auction for Outreach. Thank you for everyone who participated in our 2024 event!

The Haiti Project

We are proud to share The Haiti Project of the Diocese of Milwaukee’s response in support of them and our brothers and sisters around the world. You can learn more about this diocesan ministry here.

SCRIP

SCRIP is fundraising while you shop. You buy a retail card through Trinity’s Scrip program at face value for national and local retail stores where you already shop. Trinity Outreach Committee buys the cards at 1-13% less than face value (the percentage varies by retailer). The difference between the face value and what Trinity pays = the funds raised for Outreach! Complete this order form today to order and return to Trinity.

Trinity Christian Mission Centre

Paul Mutuku founded the Trinity Christian Ministry Centre in Machakos, Kenya, building a simple structure where the faithful could gather. This was undertaken by the new church community in part with funds sent by Trinity Episcopal Church’s outreach committee.

Additional opportunities

Many of our parishioners volunteer time and give financial support to outside groups such as:

Support for Our Next Generation/Homework Club is provided through mentors and tutors who assist inner-city children with homework and help children to establish goals and see them through to successful completion.

Several of our members partner with Interfaith to provide support often needed by elderly person still living in their own home.

We are also involved in outreach through the Episcopal Diocese of Milwaukee, most notably The Haiti Project, Collars on the Corner, Sojourner Family Peace Center  and The Hospitality Center

Episcopal Relief and Development is an international relief and development agency and a compassionate response to human suffering on behalf of The Episcopal Church.
