APPLETON, Wis., October 1, 2024 /3BL/– The Green Bay Packers are teaming up with Tork®, the professional hygiene brand of leading global hygiene and health company Essity, for the 2024 “Tackle Hygiene with Every Catch” campaign.
The campaign, which kicked off in September and will run through the first five home games of the Packers season, aims to raise awareness and promote the benefits of proper hygiene. Additionally, Tork and the Packers will provide community partners with essential hygiene products that help reduce environmental impact. For every catch the Packers make during the first five home games of the season, Tork will donate $250 worth of effective and sustainably produced hygiene products, such as paper roll towels and toilet paper (up to $30,000 in products) to local nonprofit organizations working to improve the well-being of those in need.
“We’re excited to partner again with Tork on the Tackle Hygiene Campaign,” said Justin Wolf, director of corporate partnership sales and activations for the Packers. “For more than a decade, our teams have relied on Tork hygiene products on gameday and every day and we look forward to making a positive impact in the community while cheering for Packers catches. Throughout the campaign, our fans can learn about the tools they need to stay healthy as well as the importance of hygiene and sustainability, all while supporting the Packers. We look forward to another great season of Tackle Hygiene with Every Catch.”
Since 2021, in partnership with the Packers, Tork has donated $83,500 worth of sustainable hygiene products to local charities in Northeast Wisconsin. This year’s recipient will be Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin, who works with local food banks and meal programs, providing resources so people facing hunger can put food on the table.
“Maintaining a clean and hygienic environment is critical at stadiums like Lambeau Field – which can hold more than 80,000 fans – as well as within our communities,” said Cindy Stilp, Marketing Communications Director at Essity. “Together with the Packers, we are proud to spearhead community initiatives, like Tackle Hygiene with Every Catch, in order to deliver hygienic experiences to fans, while giving back to those in the community who rely on programs like Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin, for essential services.”
Tork is the proud product provider of towels, tissue, napkins, soap and sanitizer to Lambeau Field.
