GREEN BAY — This is the second year Big Brothers Big Sisters was selected for Give Big Green Bay.
The organization has an exciting morning planned for Wednesday. From 7 to 8 a.m., they will be doing a virtual 'Power hour' over Zoom and Facebook Live. Each of the six participants will be socially distanced at Gather on Broadway, and will be doing various activities based off of donations:
1. Jen Berres, Jenstar Yoga
- "Pledges for Poses" – Jen will ask participants to pledge a dollar amount to make her hold a yoga pose, or do an activity
2. Brian Danzinger, Associated Bank
- Brian will try to do as many push-ups as dollars raised
3. Tony Ehrbar, American Tent and Rental
- Tony will take donations and accept challenges or a break here and there
4. Katie Hess, Big Brothers Big Sisters

5. Brian Johnson, On Broadway
- Brian will do random activities and accept donations for a break
6. Barbara Koldos, Hoffman Planning, Design & Construction, Inc.
- Barbara will do random activities and accept donations for a break
“Children need support now more than ever," said Hess. "That connection that we’ve been missing through the pandemic is something that we can actually provide these children through our mentoring program, so the support and the dollars that go towards our program actually go directly into the children, so that they can get the mentors that they need, the support that they need to get them through this pandemic, so that they’re not just surviving, but they’re thriving.”
