Cafe's daily special is always fellowship

Tom Heinen reports in today's Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on the Open Door Cafe.
The cafe operates in the Archbishop Weakland Center at 831 N. Van Buren St., next to the cathedral, as a ministry of the parish. ...

The cafe is projected to serve more than 55,000 hot meals and bag lunches this year, with a budget of about $120,000 coming from various sources, said Sister Donna Gazzana, director of outreach ministries for the parish.

The cafe staff is assisted by volunteers.
Downtown law firms that have regularly scheduled volunteer days include Quarles & Brady, Foley & Lardner, Whyte Hirschboeck Dudek, von Briesen & Roper and Gutglass Erickson Bonville Seibel Falkner.
