MILWAUKEE – In light of the tragedy at this weekend’s Waukesha Christmas Parade, the Milwaukee Brewers, in partnership with American Family Insurance, the Pabst Theater Group, Colectivo Coffee and Magic of Lights, are raising money to support the United for Waukesha Community Fund, the newly-created fund to support those impacted by the catastrophe.
David Stearns, Craig Counsell and Freddy Peralta will lead a contingent of Brewers personnel in hosting fans for coffee tomorrow morning at The Back Room at Colectivo Coffee. The group will be available for fans one-on-one to talk baseball and raise funds for those affected. The Brewers are encouraging fans to make donations to benefit those impacted by the tragic event (details below). The event is free and open to the public.
Further, a $10 donation will be made by Brewers Community Foundation, and matched by American Family Insurance, for each car that comes through the inaugural Magic of Lights at American Family Field from this Wednesday through Friday. The Magic of Lights is presented by American Family Insurance, which is also making a direct contribution of $50,000 to the United for Waukesha Community Fund.
“Our hearts ache for the victims of yesterday’s senseless tragedy,” said Brewers President – Baseball Operations David Stearns. “This is a time for our community to come together and support one another in any way we can.”
