A 24-hour fundraising drive in Green Bay is back, and 40 nonprofits will benefit.
The Green Bay Packers Foundation and the Greater Green Bay Community Foundation are working together to hold Give BIG Green Bay.
Dennis Buehler of the community foundation says they raised almost $1.4 million last year.
The drive will run from noon on February 18th, until noon on the 19th.
The Packers are increasing their matching fund to about $360,000. Sixty percent of the 40 nonprofits weren’t involved in the first two fundraising efforts.
