You can make a difference while scoring tickets to a Brewers home game.

That’s because the Brewers are partnering with Pick ‘n Save to support their Zero Hunger | Zero Waste initiative by hosting an in-store food drive on Friday, Aug. 20.

Customers who donate four non-perishable items at select Pick ‘n Save locations during the event will receive two vouchers for complimentary tickets to pre-selected 2021 Brewers regular-season home games (with a maximum of four ticket vouchers per person). Items donated will benefit UMOS, Tosa Cares and Milwaukee Homeless Veterans Initiative (MHVI).

The food drive will be held Aug. 20 from 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. at the following Pick ‘n Save locations:

  • 2201 Miller Park Way, West Milwaukee
  • 1717 N. Mayfair Road., Wauwatosa
  • 250 W. Holt Ave., Milwaukee

Suggested items for donation include peanut butter, canned meat (in water), canned vegetables and pasta. 

Be sure to pick up a "Wisconsin Restaurant Cookbook" while you're there (all proceeds go to grant funding for Wisconsin restaurant relief).

For more information on the food drive, please visit picknsave.com/brewers.

Her passion for the culinary industry was birthed while balancing A&W root beer mugs as a teenage carhop, fed by insatiable curiosity and fueled by the people whose stories entwine with each and every dish. She’s had the privilege of chronicling these tales via numerous media, including OnMilwaukee and in her book “Milwaukee Food.” Her work has garnered journalism awards from entities including the Milwaukee Press Club. 

When she’s not eating, photographing food, writing or recording the FoodCrush podcast, you’ll find Lori seeking out adventures with her husband Paul, traveling, cooking, reading, learning, snuggling with her cats and looking for ways to make a difference.
