Sussex Outreach Services making a difference

The Sussex Outreach Services continues to make a difference.

It’s the social ministry arm of the Cooperating Churches of Sussex. They serve 452 families, 1,079 unique individuals. They helped them with food, emergency financial assistance, preventive health programming, resources and referrals.  They serve all families and individuals in the Hamilton School District, which includes Sussex, the Village of Lisbon, Lannon, and parts of Merton, Lisbon, Butler, and Menomonee Falls. 

They partnered once again this year with the Village of Sussex for the Joy Tree, which was a big success. Village Administrator Jeremy Smith. 

"It is nice, every year around the holiday season. We work with the Sussex Outreach Services to identify those in need for some holiday gifts."   

The SOS in Sussex also distributed food Christmas Food Boxes this month.

The Sussex Outreach Services will be closed tomorrow through Saturday, December 27 and it includes two food pantries.
