Holiday Impact
Salvation Army Bell Ringing
In what has turned into an annual holiday occurrence, members of the Green Bay Packers participated in the Salvation Army's bell ringing kettle collection. President John Jones, players Daryn Colledge, Donald Driver, Bubba Franks, Greg Jennings, Ruvell Martin and Jason Spitz, as well as members of the Green Bay Packers Equipment Department donned the red apron and rang the bell in support of the Salvation Army, with the players signing autographs in exchange for donations. - Photos 1 | Photos 2 | Photos 3 | Photos 4
Toys for Tots
Each year, Lambeau Field serves as a collection point for the Toys for Tots campaign. Members of the U.S. Marine Corps Reserves collect new, unwrapped toys, which are given to children in need during the holiday season. Monetary donations collected are used to purchase toys for a specific age group that may not have received an ample supply through donations. The goal of the program is to deliver a message of hope to a needy youngster through a new toy. In 2006, $2,600 and 1,300 toys were collected and distributed to area children.
Families of Children with Cancer Holiday Party
The sights and sounds of the holidays were present as the Green Bay Packers and the Families of Children with Cancer program teamed up for the fifth consecutive year to host an early holiday party for patients and their families. The children had a chance to interact with eighteen Packers players, many of whom wore a Santa hat adorned with a gold ribbon pin, the symbol for childhood cancer. The players and their new young friends enjoyed visiting and playing a variety of games while sharing pizza and ice cream. As the evening came to a close, the players gathered and with the help of the children, sang a variety of carols. - Photos
