"The Chicago Bears have stepped up in a huge way today. Just a week after Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson started his campaign to help feed hungry families across Chicago and received nice donations from Mitch Trubisky and Charles Leno, the organization has done something themselves. The Bears organization announced on Thursday that they're committing $1.92million to local COVID-19 relief efforts. "During this unprecedented crisis, we all need to join forces and do what we can to overcome this challenge together," said Bears President and CEO Ted Phillips. "At the Bears, we have committed $1,920,000 to local COVID-19 relief efforts and are encouraging fans to lend a helping hand in whatever ways possible. We will be forever grateful to the healthcare providers, first responders, grocers, sanitation workers, janitors and everyone keeping our communities healthy and safe during this time. Please continue to do your part and stay home so we can slow down the virus and save lives."
The Bears are also asking anyone who has medical equipment to help out the state government.
