HELP CURB RECKLESS DRIVING IN AMANI
Picture
Reckless driving is a problem across Milwaukee and the Amani Neighborhood would like to do something about it. We have seen the success other neighborhoods have had with Traffic Calming Planters, and would like to see them installed at the busiest intersections in Amani. 

We've signed a petition to install the planters in Amani. If you would like to help, add your name to the petition and SHARE it with anyone who lives, works or plays in Amani. Sign it here: https://chng.it/4hqLzTPyQM

AMANI REPROT: PARTNERS WORKING TOGETHER

Each year, we put together a report about positive things happening in the Amani neighborhood. We call this the "Amani Brag Report" because neighborhood partners are asked to "brag" on themselves and report about on their year of good deeds. 
There are many organizations that work together every day in Amani to bring resources to the neighborhood. The Amani Report (or the Amani Brag Book, as we like to call it) is a collection of partner submitted accomplishments throughout 2021.
