Skilled nursing professionals deliver vital care with expertise and compassion.
This week, we celebrate your deep commitment to recovery, safety, and the dignity of those you serve. Thank you for making skilled care stronger.
Last Thursday, members of ViP (Veterans in Partnership), one of our partner engagement groups, volunteered at Camp Hometown Heroes to help prepare the camp for the summer season.
The team supported projects across the property, including:
• Donating more than 4,600 individually wrapped snacks, enough to support 300 campers across four weeks of camp
• Refreshing and preparing camp spaces through cleaning, painting, organizing, and trail maintenance
• Setting up recreational and waterfront areas for campers to enjoy throughout the summer
Camp Hometown Heroes creates meaningful experiences for children and families, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to support their mission through hands-on volunteer work.
Thank you to everyone who participated and helped make a positive impact in the community.
Nurses are the foundation of compassionate, high-quality care.
During National Nurses Week, we honor your resilience, your leadership, and your tireless advocacy for those receiving care. Your impact echoes through every care environment.
About a month ago, Direct Supply’s WIN, Women’s Initiative Network, gathered for an evening celebrating leadership, connection, and the incredible women who help shape our culture and community.
Together, we continue to grow, lead, and support one another.
The room was filled with excitement, pride, and possibility as students from Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Milwaukee stepped forward to commit to their next chapter.
Direct Supply was honored to support College Signing Day, an evening that celebrated not just where these students are going, but the hard work, resilience, and support systems that helped them get there. Moments like these are powerful reminders of what’s possible when a community comes together to invest in the future.
The Eras Senior Network Tapestry Gala highlights what is possible when a community rallies around older adults and caregivers. That shared commitment drives stronger outcomes and more supportive care environments.
Direct Supply was honored to be recognized among dedicated volunteers, partners, and community leaders. This work matters, and the people behind it make the difference every day.
Every blood drive reflects a powerful choice. Someone shows up, rolls up their sleeve, and takes action to help others.
Our Community Involvement team earned recognition from Versiti Blood Center as a top partner. That recognition belongs to our Partners. Their generosity helps save lives and strengthens the communities we serve.
Innovation in Senior Living doesn’t happen in isolation.
It happens when ideas, products, and people come together.
Our Supplier Showcase brought 33 suppliers into one space to share what they are building, what they are seeing, and what is next for the industry. Bringing this group together is part of how we stay at the forefront, connecting innovation to real impact for the communities we serve.
We’re honored to receive the 2026 Girls on the Run of Southeastern Wisconsin Corporate Partnership Energy Award.
Through Direct Supply’s Women’s Initiative Network (WIN), we’ve had the privilege of partnering with an organization that’s making a lasting impact in our community. What makes this work so meaningful is the mission: helping young girls build confidence, resilience, and a strong sense of self.
Thank you to the Girls on the Run team for the incredible difference you’re making, we’re proud to be part of this journey.
Our team shipped 15 boxes of care items to deployed service members, fulfilling 195 Amazon wish list requests and adding another $900 in supplies to support troops here and abroad.
This effort is part of Randy Delivers, a program inspired by Navy veteran and longtime Partner Randy Schallert. Randy had a way of making every delivery meaningful. He brought kindness, stories, and connection wherever he went.
We are proud to carry that forward and support those who serve.
Today, we hosted the MPS STEM Partners Showcase, welcoming over 100 students from 30+ Milwaukee Public Schools.
Moments like this matter. When students have the opportunity to share their work and connect with professionals, it strengthens the path from classroom learning to future careers.
The future of innovation is already taking shape, and it is exciting to see it firsthand.
