MILWAUKEE — A sleepover for education! Volunteers are spending the night on the corner of MLK and North to collect school supply donations for families in need on Friday.

"Every year it gets bigger and bigger," community activist Tracey Dent said. "It's just amazing. Even through the hard times that Milwaukee is facing, they know how to come together when it's times in need. That's why I want to say to Milwaukee, thank you so much."
