The Green Bay Packers have pledged to help Social Justice within their local community. The rise from organizations to help social inequality measures have continued throughout the year of the COVID-19 pandemic and it seems the influence from Social Justice protests (like Black Lives Matters) have influenced recognition in all places in the United States. The Green Bay Packers are another organization that recognizes these Social Justice inequalities and have donated $250,000 in grants to nonprofit organizations that will help develop education and economic structures for minority communities. The outreach from an NFL organization has increased the effort towards Social Justice reform.
