MILWAUKEE (PRWEB) December 17, 2014 -- From December 1st to December 12th, 2014, Kohl’s and the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel teamed up with Aaron Rodgers to raise funds for the MACC Fund through the 3rd Annual Aaron Rodgers’ 12 Days of Christmas. The campaign raised $80,000 for the MACC Fund, a non-profit that works to fund research into childhood cancer and blood disorders.

“The MACC Fund is so grateful to be part of this great third annual “Aaron Rodgers 12 Days of Christmas” sponsored by Kohl’s and created by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel,” Jon McGlocklin, President and Co-Founder of the MACC Fund said. “This unique program bringing together our good friend and benefactor, Aaron Rodgers, and two great home-grown corporate citizens in Kohl’s and the Journal Sentinel truly is a ‘Trifecta of Hope’ for children battling cancer and blood disorders. Thanks to all of the generous people who shopped at Kohl’s for their special ‘Gift of Hope’.”

The 3rd Annual Aaron Rodgers’ 12 Days of Christmas again featured 12 children from across Wisconsin who were treated in the MACC Fund Center at Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin. Children’s Hospital is one of the beneficiaries of MACC Fund support. This year’s children ranged from ages three to nineteen years old. Emma, Charlie, Wiley, Ateat, Olivia, Bobby, Chris, Natalie, Jordan, Jay, Zachary, and Lily were featured in full-page ads within the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Each ad showcased a piece of the child’s story and how the MACC Fund has helped extend their life expectancy. Online, at http://www.jsonline.com/12days each child had their moment to shine as the main feature on one of the twelve days, corresponding with the print ad. The website also includes video interviews with each child’s parent, where they recount their heartwarming story of how their lives were positively changed through the care and resources that Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin and the MACC Fund provide.

During the 12 Days of Christmas campaign, Milwaukee-area Kohl's stores donated 5 percent of the net sales of all eligible toy purchases made between Dec. 1 and Dec. 12, 2014, to the MACC Fund.

On Tuesday, December 16, Kohl’s presented honorary MACC Fund Board Member Aaron Rodgers and Executive Director of the MACC Fund, John Cary the $80,000 raised through 12 Days of Christmas at Lambeau Field. For more information on the campaign, please visit http://www.jsonline.com/12days
