Your butter burgers and frozen custards bought at the Sturgeon Bay Culver’s and Door Stop Amoco on Wednesday are not just going to fill your stomach, but help rebuild a family’s life.
It was all hands on deck at Culver’s as the True Blue Crew worked to fill dozens of orders from local businesses, non-profits, and government organizations for lunch will volunteers handling the delivery. Proceeds from the day’s sales are going to support the Bretl family, which lost its home and nearby storage shed on consecutive days in early February. Sturgeon Bay Culver’s owner Austin Hildebrand says it was important to help and great to see the support for their efforts to help the family out.
Support for the Bretl family has been widespread as a GoFundMe page set up in the days after the fires have raised over $31,000 from approximately 380 donors. Algoma School District is hosting its own unique way to support Chuck Bretl, who is famously known around the building for his neckties. The district is asking for donations of ties so Chuck can rebuild his collection.
UPDATE: Over $5,000 was raised during the share day at Culver's and Door Stop Amoco with more than $2,000 coming directly from donations.
