On Sept. 25, Foley & Lardner LLP held a check presentation to Hunger Task Force as part of the firm’s 2010 K’s For A Cause program.

This is the third year Hunger Task Force has been the beneficiary of the program. Throughout the season Foley partners, associates and staff donate a set amount to the program for every strikeout recorded by a Brewers’ pitcher at Miller Park. Strikeouts are highlighted on the “K Board” strikeout meter in right field throughout the season. Brewers closer Trevor Hoffman joined the cause by pledging as well. The $126,000 raised through the K’s For A Cause program would provide two meals for every Brewer fan at a sold out game at Miller Park!

K’s For A Cause is a partnership between Foley & Lardner, LLP and the Milwaukee Brewers, which began in March 2008. Hunger Task Force was named the beneficiary over the past three seasons. To date, the program has raised more than $400,000 to feed Milwaukee’s hungry.
