Donate to The Power Sweep's 2024 Charity Drive

Welcome to The Power Sweep’s 2024 Charity Drive! I’m glad to have you here.

This annual charity drive has become one of my favorite parts of the enter operation here at The Power Sweep. Every year, I feel like I’m surprised anew at the generosity of Packers fans around the world, and I can’t wait to see what you contribute this year. Whatever the amount, I’m proud of this community and how we’ve been able to build it together.

Previously, we’ve supported Packers-related charities with this annual drive, but I’d like to change things up this year. For 2024, The Power Sweep’s charity drive will support the Alzheimer’s Association.

Alzheimer’s disease has been an unfortunate part of my extended family’s medical history, and I hate the idea of anyone else having to experience the effects of this disease. Anything we can do to push back against it is a win in my book, and if that comes in the form of a sports blog and podcast collecting a few donations, so much the better.

And of course, for everyone who donates, there will be the opportunity to win some prizes. Here are the full details.

HOW DO I PARTICIPATE?

To donate to this year’s charity drive, simply make a contribution to any branch of the Alzheimer’s Association and take a screenshot confirming your donation. Email that confirmation to thepowersweep1959@gmail.com by December 31, 2024 and we’ll include you in the prize drawing for participants.

Where DO I DONATE?

Here’s the link to donate to the Alzheimer’s Association, though there are other branch websites that may offer other benefits. For example, the Wisconsin branch has previously offered commemorative Packers blankets to anyone who donates, though I don’t know if they’re planning to do anything this year.

HOW MUCH SHOULD I DONATE?

There’s no minimum donation, but we suggest a donation of $10. There is no obligation to donate more than that. Any donation of any amount will make you eligible for prizes.

OKAY, SO WHAT’S THE DEAL WITH THESE PRIZES?

If you give to our charities, we want to give back to you. We have 25 prizes to give to randomly selected participants in our charity drive. Here’s what’s up for grabs:

  • One Packers jersey (valued at up to $125)

  • Two $50 gift certificates to the Packers Pro Shop

  • Two $25 gift certificates to the Packers Pro Shop

  • Five T-shirts from The Power Sweep

  • Five sticker packages from The Power Sweep

ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW?

That’s it! Participation is by no means mandatory, but we’d love for you to join us. Get those donations in by December 31, and you’ll be a part of our charity effort! No matter what you contribute, we’re glad to have you as a part of our team.
