“We can be a big help by getting people in the community to come to these events,” Melton said. “You can’t just get involved and say you want to be involved, you have to make the effort to come and be here, I think that’s the first step.”
Tork and the Packers have been partners for the past four seasons, raising $111,750 worth of hygienic products that have been donated to local charities in the Fox Cities and Milwaukee areas.
