BBBSNEW is honored to have been chosen as one of 45 non-profits to participate in Give Big Green Bay 2021! Hosted by The Green Bay Packers Foundation and The Greater Green Bay Community Foundation, the community-wide giving day will go from noon February 16 until noon February 17, 2021.

Green Bay Packers president/CEO Mark Murphy shares, “Given the pandemic we are facing across the country, I think it really demonstrates just how important and critical the non-profit community is to support those in need and also very vulnerable.”

BBBSNEW was chosen to participate in Give Big Green Bay for the first time in 2020, and we raised over $42,000! “That was right before the pandemic hit and then everything changed financially for us in 2020, so we understand just how important Give Big Green Bay will be this year for Big Brothers Big Sisters and all the other participating non-profits,” said Vic Valdez, Marketing & Communications Director with BBBSNEW.

BBBSNEW is encouraging its Bigs, Littles, staff, community members and board members to get involved by promoting Give Big Green Bay on their personal social media platforms. “The more people we can get spreading the word about Give Big Green Bay, the more it will benefit BBBSNEW and all participating non-profits.” said Katie Hess, Executive Director for BBBSNEW. “With the donations we’ll receive through this fundraiser, we can support more children in our community.” she added.

Let’s go, Green Bay!
