Community service
The Center's policy of allowing non-profit groups to operate its concessions on a shared-revenue basis has now, after six years of operation, generated $2.3 million for those groups to reinvest in our community. This policy, again, was created and is carried on in the spirit of the donors of the Bradley Center, who have generously contributed so much to Wisconsin and its citizens.
The Center remains committed to community service in other ways, as well, including making its facilities available for fund-raising events conducted by local organizations. The Center is a major sponsor, for example, of the Milwaukee Urban League's annual Black and White Ball, which last fiscal year raised $175,000 to help finance the Urban League's good works.
Joseph E. Tierney, Jr., David Skiles and I would appreciate the opportunity to brief you on the enclosed financial statements. We would also like to reiterate our offer to provide a "behind-the-scenes" tour for you, your staff or family members interested in the workings of a unique and very special Wisconsin asset. We wish you the very best in 1995.
Sincerely,
james l. forbes
