The Milwaukee Bucks and Sargento Foods raised $33,500 through the “Tipoff for Homes” initiative during the 2019-20 season to support Habitat for Humanity in Milwaukee. In its first season, the initiative called for a $500 donation from Sargento Foods to Habitat for Humanity for every tip-off the Bucks won throughout the 2019-20 regular season.
Led by center Brook Lopez, the Bucks won the opening tip in 50 of their 65 games prior to the league’s hiatus on March 11, resulting in a $25,000 donation. Sargento then committed $500 for each of the 17 regular season games that were missed during the hiatus for a total donation of $33,500 to Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity, which will help build homes in underserved communities in Milwaukee.
