Our Annual Signature Event
Black Balloon Release Day 2022
In an effort to raise greater awareness of this national epidemic, Samad’s House hosted its 2nd Annual Black Balloon Release Day in Milwaukee, WI on Sunday, March 6, 2022.
We gathered with families, partner organizations, local media outlets and individuals to release black balloons in remembrance of those who lost their lives to drug overdose in Milwaukee County and surrounding areas in 2021.
The ceremony took place at Samad’s House—2875 North 23rd Street Milwaukee, WI 53206. Please check out some of the photos from the event in our photo gallery below.
