Sartori donates $42,000 to Make-A-Wish® Wisconsin
PLYMOUTH, Wis., April 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Sartori Company is honored to announce they have contributed $42,000 to the Make-A-Wish Wisconsin Foundation. This past season, Sartori partnered with Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby and the Packers Radio Network in support of Make-A-Wish; for every field goal Crosby made during the season, Sartori pledged to make a donation to Make-A-Wish. To date, Sartori has donated over $100,000 to Make-A-Wish Wisconsin.
"This is the third year of the partnership," stated Sue Merckx, Sartori Marketing Director. "For each successful field goal in the pre- and regular 2013 football season, Sartori donated $1,000. In the postseason, Sartori increased their contribution to $1,500 for each completed field goal."
Mason Crosby had a stand-out 2013 football season. He successfully completed 39 field goals in the pre- and regular season and an additional 2 successful conversions in the postseason. This is Crosby's highest scoring regular season since he joined the Packers in 2007.
"We're very fortunate to be in a position where we can continue to give back," stated 3rd generation owner and CEO Jim Sartori. "Make-A-Wish and the supporters of this organization help to make a child's dream possible. If there is one thing we can do for these children, it's to provide a bit of joy for them."
The Wisconsin Make-A-Wish Foundation is an organization dedicated to granting the wishes of seriously ill children. Since the Wisconsin chapter founding in 1984, nearly 5,000 children and their families throughout the state have experienced the transformative power of a wish. Last year alone, Make-A-Wish Wisconsin granted a record-breaking 340 wishes.
