The Green Bay Packers Foundation on Tuesday awarded $600,000 to 236 civic and charitable groups throughout the state of Wisconsin in its annual distribution of grants. Terry Fulwiler, chairperson of the Foundation, made the announcement. Overall, including a recent $250,000 impact grant awarded to the Medical College of Wisconsin – Green Bay and a $250,000 impact grant to the American Foundation of Counseling Services in Green Bay, $1.1 million was awarded through the Foundation this year.
The total donation amount tied the Foundation’s donation record, and the number of recipient organizations is a record for the Foundation.
The groups were guests at a luncheon in the Lambeau Field Atrium, an event that welcomed all the recipients and honored the outstanding efforts and services performed by each of the organizations.
