SHAREHOLDERS• Green Bay Packers, Inc., has been a publicly owned, nonprofit cor-

poration since Aug. 18, 1923, when original articles of incorporation were filed with Wisconsin’s secretary of state.

• A total of 5,014,545 shares are owned by 364,114 stockholders –none of whom receives any dividend on the initial investment.

• The corporation is governed by a board of directors and a seven-member executive committee.

• One of the more remarkable business stories in American history, the team is kept viable by its shareholders – its unselfish fans. Even more incredible, the Packers have survived during the current era, permeated by free agency and the NFL salary cap. And, thanks in large part to Brown County’s passage of the 2000 Lambeau Field referendum, the club will remain solvent and highly competitive well into the future due to its redeveloped stadium.

• Fans have supported the team financially on several occasions, including five stock sales: 1923, 1935, 1950, 1997 and 2011.

• To protect against someone taking control of the team, the articles of incorporation prohibit any person from owning more than 200,000 shares.

The Green Bay Packers organization is dedicated to enriching the lives of Wisconsin and Upper Michigan residents by donating time and talents, along with providing diverse community outreach programs. Our programs are designed to assist nonprofit organizations, mentor youth, encourage volunteerism and gain an awareness of the unique needs of our communities. We are committed to taking an active role in leading by example to encourage, inspire and build unity within the com-munities that have consistently supported us for more than 90 years.

The Green Bay Packers are founded on two principles: football and a commitment to the community. Fulfilling the Packers’ mission requires focus and dedication – seven days a week, 52 weeks a year. These efforts have resulted in a 94-year legacy of excellence both on and off the field.

ally to nonprofit organizations located in Brown County that host events at Lambeau Field. Chosen recipients were ASPIRO, Family Services of Northeast Wisconsin, P.E.O. Sisterhood – Green Bay Reciprocity and St. Vincent Hospital.

WISH GRANTINGLast season, the Packers were honored to grant the wishes of

16 children and young adults through the Make-A-Wish Foundation. During each visit, the guest of honor has the opportunity to tour Lambeau Field, watch practice, dine with the team and share some very special one-on-one time with their favorite players. The Packers’ players, coaches and staff work diligently to make certain each visit is a positive and memorable experience for their special guests.

MILITARY SUPPORT

The Packers remain committed to honoring the men and women of the United States military who have or are currently serving their country. In an effort to do so, the Packers send hundreds of military care packages and messages of support each year. In addition, and as a result of a grant from NFL Charities, the Packers were pleased to make a $5,000 donation to the Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs for its new Medal of Honor memorial.

APPEARANCES BY PLAYERS AND COACHES Members of the organization – players, coaches and staff – are

committed to supporting the community. Throughout 2012, the Packers were granted the opportunity to make nearly 700 appear-ances. Appearances included nonprofit fundraisers, school visits, athletic banquets and many other events and programs.

APPEARANCES BY ALUMNIThe season featured numerous homecomings at Lambeau Field.

During home-game weekends, the Packers and their fans welcomed more than 50 alumni during their returns to the stadium. The visits provided the fans a chance to fondly relive Packers history, as well as obtain autographs from some of their favorite former players.

NFL MAN OF THE YEAR PROGRAMEach season, the Packers nominate a player for the Walter Payton

NFL Man of the Year Award. The honor recognizes NFL players for their commitment to the community. The Packers’ nominee for 2012 was wide receiver James Jones. Jones was recognized for the posi-tive impact he makes by way of his Love Jones 4 Kids Foundation, as well as his strong support of various other nonprofit organizations.

FIT KIDS!Currently in its ninth year, the Fit Kids! program has been

adopted by more than 320 public school districts across the state of Wisconsin, with 76 percent of eligible students benefitting from the curriculum. The program, presented by the Packers and Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, is designed to improve children’s physical, mental and social health through the instruction of teachers, and has made a difference in the lives of thousands of students.

PLAY 60 CHALLENGETen Wisconsin schools participated in this season’s Play 60

Challenge, a program that inspires students to be active for at least 60 minutes per day. Of the 2,620 middle-school students who participated, 9.7 million active minutes were logged in a 28-day span, averaging 133 minutes per student, per day. Valders Middle School proved victorious in the challenge with a daily average of 188 minutes per student.

SCHOLARSHIPSThe Packers have forged an educational partnership with

Scholarships, Inc. and Northeast Wisconsin Technical College, funding several scholarships for students who are residents of Brown County and entering four-year colleges or two-year technical or apprenticeship trade programs. The scholarships are awarded based on community service, involvement in athletic activities, academic achievement and financial need.

YOUTH FOOTBALL ON LAMBEAU FIELDFor many years, the Packers have invited local youth football

teams to run plays on the field during the Packers Family Night scrim-mage, as well as during halftime of a preseason game, as they are cheered on by the thousands of fans in attendance.

NFL PUNT, PASS & KICK COMPETITIONEach year, the Packers host the annual Punt, Pass & Kick

Competition prior to a game at Lambeau Field. Forty-one young-sters, ages 8-15, advanced from across the state for the oppor-tunity to compete for the title of Packers Punt, Pass & Kick Team Champion, with three participants scoring high enough to place them in competition at the Punt, Pass & Kick National Finals.

GREEN BAY PACKERS 7-ON-7 REGIONAL PASSING TOURNAMENTIn June 2012, the Packers hosted their fourth annual 7-on-7

Regional Passing Tournament. Eight teams competed in a passing tournament at the Don Hutson Center for the chance to advance to the NFL 7-on-7 National Tournament as representatives of the Packers.

NFL 7-ON-7 NATIONAL PASSING TOURNAMENTThe Packers, along with each of the other 31 NFL clubs, sent a

team of high school athletes to represent them in the NFL 7-on-7 National Passing Tournament. The competition was hosted by the Indianapolis Colts in July.

Player Development Leadership Program for 50 Wisconsin high school football athletes. The HSPD Leadership Program is a one-day event comprised of activities in three different areas – the class-room, the community and leadership, including intensive character development and life skills training.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL COACH OF THE WEEK PROGRAMEach week during the football season, the Packers honor a

Wisconsin high school football coach who demonstrates outstand-ing leadership on and off the field. Each winner receives $2,000 to be used for the school’s football program. One coach, named the Packers High School Football Coach of the Year, is given a $3,000 donation for his football program and is recognized at Lambeau Field during one of the Packers’ final home games.

NFL HIGH SCHOOL PLAYER DEVELOPMENT CAMPPresented by the Wisconsin National Guard, the NFL High

School Player Development (HSPD) Camp provides incoming high school freshmen through seniors free training in character develop-ment and specific position football skills.

USA FOOTBALL STATE FORUMThe USA Football State Forum brings together youth football leaders

from across the state of Wisconsin to discuss various topics impacting the sport. Wisconsin youth league commissioners gain insight on further strengthening player safety and best practices through USA Football’s Heads Up Football program, and have the opportunity to network with peers, USA Football representatives and NFL teams.

USA FOOTBALL COACHING SCHOOLThe Packers worked with USA Football to host a coaching school

with the goal of developing and sharpening the approach to youth football in the state. The curriculum, aimed at youth football levels, focused on the strategies of the game, as well as the life lessons that young players learn from the game. The event featured multiple classroom sessions at Lambeau Field as well as drill demonstrations.

AMERICAN RED CROSS BLOOD DRIVES & DKMS BONE MARROW REGISTRY

The Packers partner with the American Red Cross several times each year to host blood drives for both staff and community members. Throughout the year, nearly 750 units of blood were collected at Lambeau Field, impacting up to 2,250 patients in need of a donation. Attendees of the fall blood drive were also offered an opportunity to register as a bone-marrow donor through DKMS, the largest bone-marrow donor center in the world.

PROJECT LEAP!Project LEAP! is an event designed to get children and their

families out of the house to participate in fun, physical activity in the midst of harsh Wisconsin winters. Among the activities offered at the event are inflatables, climbing walls, bungee trampolines, face painting and entertainment.

WELCOME BACK LUNCHEONEach year in the midst of training camp, the Green Bay Area

Chamber of Commerce hosts the Welcome Back Luncheon. The event welcomes the players and coaches back to the area for the upcoming season, and serves as an opportunity for members of the community to interact with the team, as a player or coach is assigned to each table to mingle and dine with guests.

LADIES OF LAMBEAULadies of Lambeau, a group comprised of female employees

and board members, and wives or partners of employees, board members, players and coaches, work to undertake projects that will make a difference in the lives of people near and far. This year’s project involved making blankets for residents at area nursing homes. Approximately 150 volunteers created 200 blankets during the event.

BROWN COUNTY CHILDREN’S CHARITY GOLF CLASSICOn an annual basis, the Packers team up with Brown County

to host the Children’s Charity Golf Classic, with proceeds from the 2012 event going to benefit the Northeast Wisconsin Technical College Educational Foundation and the Brown County Human Services Department Pals Program. Through the support of Packers President/CEO Mark Murphy and other administrative staff who attended the event, $55,000 was raised for the programs.

GREEN AND GOLD GALAThe 24th annual Green and Gold Gala was once again held at

Lambeau Field in 2012. With the strong support of the Packers organization, crucial funds were raised for Family Services of Northeast Wisconsin, an organization aimed at offering services to families in crisis and need.

PRO VS. G.I. JOE PROGRAMAs part of the Pro vs. G.I. Joe program, several Packers play-

ers connected with active Wisconsin National Guard members in a friendly battle of the video game “Call of Duty.” Soldiers who were stationed in Afghanistan, Kuwait and Qatar were able to compete against the players via a video-conference setup on the Lambeau Field Atrium balcony. Families of the deployed soldiers were also invited to the competition.

65 ROSES CELEBRITY GOLF TOURNAMENTAs part of a long-standing tradition in Green Bay, Head Coach Mike

McCarthy served as the honorary chairman for the 65 Roses Celebrity Golf Tournament. For nearly 25 years, the organization has teamed up with Humana to raise more than $615,000 to fight cystic fibrosis.

JERRY PARINS CRUISE FOR CANCERJerry Parins, former director of security for the Packers, hosts

the annual Jerry Parins Cruise for Cancer each summer. The motor-cycle ride has raised $590,000 over the last nine years for various local cancer-related organizations. The ride was created by Parins a mere 16 months after he was diagnosed with cancer in 2003.

MIKE AND JESSICA MCCARTHY GOLF TOURNAMENTEstablished in June 2010, the Mike and Jessica McCarthy Golf

Tournament benefits the American Family Children’s Hospital in Madison, WI. In just three years, the event has raised an impressive net total of more than $500,000, with contributions and participa-tion increasing each year. In 2012, the tournament raised more than $270,000 in net profit, with proceeds going to the hospital’s “Sick Kids Can’t Wait” campaign. The campaign is designed to meet the needs of sick children by further developing and improving the resources and facilities at the hospital.

PACKERS STAFF COLLECTIONSEach quarter throughout the year, Packers employees adopted a

nonprofit organization in Green Bay, for which they collected items of need. As a result of the staff’s generosity, House of Hope, The Salvation Army Coats for Kids Program, Literacy Green Bay and the Northwest Technical College Career Closet all received boxes of contributions to assist them in serving others.

TRAINING CAMPEach summer, the Packers hold their annual training camp at

Ray Nitschke Field. The newly renovated field, which seats 1,500 fans, holds more than 20 practices each year, with an estimated attendance of 100,000 fans throughout camp. Practices are viewed free of charge. The field is located directly across the street from Lambeau Field, which allows players the opportunity to keep alive the long-standing tradition of riding young fans’ bikes to practice, providing the kids a memory and a story to last a lifetime.

TAILGATE TOURSeveral players, alumni and staff departed in May 2012 on a

five-day journey through Wisconsin for the organization’s annual Tailgate Tour. President/CEO Mark Murphy and players Mason Crosby and Jordy Nelson, as well as alumni players William Henderson, Larry McCarren and Marco Rivera, made stops in La Crosse, Madison, Kenosha, Cedarburg/Grafton and Sturgeon Bay. In addition to impromptu stops, the group made nightly appearances at a tailgate party in each city, with all proceeds benefiting a desig-nated nonprofit organization. Since the tour’s inception seven years ago, 30 organizations throughout Wisconsin and Upper Michigan have raised in excess of $825,000 for their work in the community.

NFL HOMETOWN HUDDLEThe Packers, United Way and the City of Milwaukee teamed up

in the fall to build a new playground at Smith Park in Milwaukee as part of the NFL Hometown Huddle project. Area schoolchildren were invited to visit the playground construction site as well as meet the Packers players who were helping with the project that day.

PACKERS IN THE COMM

UNITY

MAKING STRIDES AGAINST BREAST CANCER RUN/WALKMembers of the Packers Women’s Association (PWA) participated

in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Awareness Run/Walk, with all proceeds going to benefit the American Cancer Society. Despite the rainy, chilly weather the participants encountered that day, the event raised in excess of $76,000 overall. Since Making Strides began 20 years ago, breast cancer death rates have declined 32 percent.

PAUL’S PANTRY FOOD DRIVEThe PWA teamed up with United Healthcare for the 26th annual

food drive for Paul’s Pantry. The drive was quite successful, netting more than 27,000 food items and $21,000 in the hours leading up to a Packers home game.

PWA CARE FOR KIDS PROJECTThe PWA continued its work on a program started in 2009, the

PWA Care for Kids project, created to support pediatric patients at local hospitals. Over 1,000 arts and crafts projects, games and mov-ies were donated to the hospitals for distribution to young patients during their extended and often overwhelming stays in the hospital.

BLANKETS FOR LITTLE PATIENTSMembers of the PWA committed time and resources to a new proj-

ect, aspiring to send comfort to the babies who are admitted to the St. Vincent Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in Green Bay. Following the unit’s specifications, the ladies created several dozen blankets to be given to the hospital’s youngest patients battling various illnesses.

NEW COMMUNITY SHELTER DINNER SERVICEIn 2012, the PWA undertook a new project by offering their

services to the New Community Shelter in Green Bay. Members volunteered their time to serve dinner, as well as their homemade desserts, to the less fortunate who look to the facility for assistance and care. The shelter works in cooperation with others in the com-munity to address homelessness and hopelessness through educa-tion, counseling, resources and in-house services.

SARGENTO TOUCHDOWNS FOR CHARITY PROGRAM

The Packers and Sargento again partnered for the Touchdowns for Charity program, with Sargento making a contribution to the pro-gram for each touchdown scored throughout the season. A total of $100,500 was raised, benefiting the Wisconsin Hunger Task Force in Milwaukee County and Paul’s Pantry in Green Bay.

PROTECTION IS THE NAME OF THE GAME CAMPAIGNThe Packers partnered with Verizon Wireless to execute a

campaign entitled Protection Is the Name of the Game. The project focused on a season-long cell phone drive, with Verizon Wireless making a $10 donation to its HopeLine program for each used cell phone donated. The program benefits victims of domestic violence in Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

FIRST DOWN FOR TREESAs part of their Green Team initiative, the Packers completed

their third season of the eco-friendly First Downs for Trees program. With every first down the team gained, a contribution was made to the fund, resulting in the organization contributing a total of $16,000 to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. The program also received a $48,000 grant from the U.S. Forest Service, resulting in a total of 852 new trees being planted.

HOLIDAY MAIL FOR HEROESThe Packers teamed up with the American Red Cross to coordi-

nate a Holiday Mail for Heroes drive at Lambeau Field on gameday. The drive provided fans the opportunity to send a message of holiday cheer to one of the many service members who are currently serving or have served our country.

DNC SPORTSERVICE CONCESSION-STAND EFFORTArea nonprofit groups volunteer their time and energy to staff

concession stands for each and every home game. In turn, dona-tions totaling more than $750,000 were given to the 91 nonprofit organizations that volunteered during the 2012 season.

The Green Bay Packers organization has enjoyed tremendous fan support through its long and storied history. The commu-nity supported the team in times of need by “passing the hat” at games and by buying stock in 1923, 1935, 1950, 1997 and 2011, among other ways. To give back to the community, the team cre-ated the Green Bay Packers Foundation in December 1986. The foundation assists in a wide variety of activities and programs that benefit education, civic affairs, health services, human services and youth-related programs.

Last year, in its annual distribution of funds, the foundation awarded $450,000 to 145 civic and charitable groups throughout the state of Wisconsin, Charlie Lieb, chairman of the foundation committee, announced Feb. 12, 2013. With these disbursements, the Foundation has distributed more than $3 million for charitable purposes since it was established in 1986 by Judge Robert J. Parins, then-president of the Packers Corporation, “as a vehicle to assure continued contributions to charity.”

The financial breakdown of the Foundation’s contributions discloses that 48 grants – aggregating $166,500 – were awarded to Brown County organizations.
