While one of
Jani-King’s own, Jeff Weyker, Vice President of Jani-King of
Milwaukee, took home MVP honors at a local charity softball game
held in Wisconsin, the real winners were the families that
benefited from this great event. Hosted by NFL player Donald
Driver and sponsored by Jani-King of Milwaukee and Jani-King of
Madison, the annual charity softball game was homerun for
everyone involved.
‘I am very proud to be able to contribute
to this event on behalf of our franchise owners and to help the
Donald Driver Foundation reach their goals of assisting those in
need,’ said Jon McAlpine, Master Franchise Owner of Jani-King
of Milwaukee and Jani-King of Madison.
The event featured Driver,
members of the Green Bay Packers and representatives from various
sponsors, with all proceeds benefiting the Donald Driver
Foundation. The Donald Driver Foundation aims to help homeless
families and address the issues of a lack of quality education in
communities. The motto of the foundation is ‘Strong Hands,
Strong Minds, Loving Hearts.’ Through donations, various
service projects and social activities, the Donald Driver
Foundation has helped families in need in Green Bay, in Appleton,
throughout Wisconsin and in Donald’s home state of Texas.
‘It was great to have Jani-King participate in my annual
charity softball game, featuring the Green Bay Packers Offense vs
Defense,’ said Driver. ‘The game has become a huge summer
tradition in Wisconsin, drawing sell-out crowds and it is
televised statewide. Proceeds from the game benefit homeless
families and disadvantaged youth throughout Wisconsin and my home
state of Texas. Having the support of Jon McAlpine and Jani-King
means the world to me. They are a great group to work with and I
truly appreciate all of their support.’
In addition to
Weyker, George Raab and Jason Bray represented the Jani-King
regional offices in Milwaukee. As the main sponsor of the event,
Jani-King received exposure on television, radio and print
promotions.
