50 nonprofits selected to participate in eighth annual ‘Give Big Green Bay’ | Packers.com
The Green Bay Packers and Greater Green Bay Community Foundation are again teaming up to host Give BIG Green Bay. The eighth annual 24-hour giving day encourages everyone to learn about and support 50 participating nonprofits to generate community-wide impact.
Starting at noon on Feb. 19 until noon on Feb. 20, anyone, anywhere can visit givebiggreenbay.org to learn about the participating nonprofits and donate, at any level, to the causes they champion. This year, the Green Bay Packers Foundation is again providing a $250,000 grant to create a matching pool of funds to encourage generosity and assure that every dollar donated will go further to make a difference in the community. Last February, more than $3 million was raised in 24 hours through the generosity of 5,618 donors.
“The Packers are proud to support Give BIG Green Bay and the nonprofit organizations that will benefit, thanks to generous donors,” said Packers President/CEO Mark Murphy. “As a publicly owned franchise, we know firsthand the importance of community support. We recognize the invaluable opportunity Give BIG provides Brown County nonprofits to raise funds and awareness for their causes. We encourage fans both locally and around the world to learn more about these inspiring organizations and donate at any level.”
The 50 organizations selected to participate in Give BIG Green Bay 2025 showcase the strength and diversity of organizations serving Brown County. They represent 11 areas of impact and vary in size and experience — ranging from large and established to newer and smaller organizations. Of the 50 organizations selected this year, 32% will participate for the first time.
“Give BIG Green Bay is about amplifying the critical work of our nonprofits, sharing their powerful stories and celebrating the power of local giving,” said Dennis Buehler, President and CEO of the Greater Green Bay Community Foundation. “Year after year, this community shows just how people can come together and make a significant difference.”
Starting this year, the Mark Murphy Give BIG Green Bay Spirit Award will be introduced to honor Murphy’s dedication to fostering generosity in our community as he approaches retirement. This award celebrates his lasting impact and will recognize the participating nonprofit that best embodies the values and spirit of Give BIG Green Bay. Selected through a vote by participating nonprofits, this accolade represents the highest honor of the event. The award will serve as a lasting tribute to Murphy’s legacy and will continue annually in his name.
