GREEN BAY (NBC26) — Green Bay Packers players, alumni and fans raised more than $32,000 for the Salvation Army's Red Kettle Campaign this holiday season through multiple fundraising efforts.

The Packers organization contributed a $20,000 donation to the Salvation Army of Greater Green Bay through Amazon's "TNF for Good" initiative. Each NFL club selected a nonprofit recipient that tackles food insecurity in their communities to receive the funds.

The combined efforts brought the total donated to the Salvation Army to $32,774 during this holiday season.

All proceeds will support the Salvation Army's efforts in aiding needy families, seniors and the homeless in Green Bay. The 2025 Christmas Campaign runs through December 31.

Those wishing to donate can visit the virtual red kettle at sagreenbay.org or mail a check postmarked prior to the end of the year to 626 Union Court, Green Bay, WI 54303.

The fundraising efforts demonstrate the continued partnership between the Packers organization and the Green Bay community during the holiday season.
