Dillon Family Foundation and U.S. Venture are turning rushing yards into food for Green Bay kids

GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) - Packers running back A.J. Dillon and his wife Gabrielle are using the Dillon Family Foundation to launch a new initiative with U.S. Venture.

It’s called the “Carry for a Cause” campaign and it provides food to children in need in the Green Bay community.

For every rushing yard at Packers home games this year, the foundation will donate a backpack of food to the local non-profit “House of Hope”. The Dillons say it’s about empowering families and fighting food insecurity in the Green Bay community.
