Volunteers Bob Peters and Helen Falk collect food for the Packers Women's Association's annual food drive for Paul's Pantry in Green Bay outside Lambeau Field in 2013.

GREEN BAY - Food and donations for Paul's Pantry in Green Bay and Hunger Task Force in Milwaukee will be accepted Sunday before the Green Bay Packers game at Lambeau Field.

Nonperishable food and monetary donations can be made from 12:30-2:30 p.m. at the Sargento Cheese Mobile near the Tundra Tailgate Zone on the east side of Lambeau Field. Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame member and all-time leading rusher Ahman Green will be on hand for photo opportunities and to speak with fans. Sargento also will offer tacos made with its cheese and give prizes.

This is Touchdowns for Charity's 14th year working to alleviate hunger in Wisconsin and Sargento Food's fifth annual food drive. As part of the program, Sargento donates $1,500 for each touchdown scored during the regular season. It donated more than $1.1 million during the 14 years of the program.
