Bart Starr led the Green Bay Packers to five NFL titles and two Super Bowl Championships. Starr played for 15 years as quarterback and rose to become one the greatest players the NFL has ever seen. 

He married his high school sweetheart, Cherry, and the couple tirelessly served as Honorary Chairpersons of the Vince Lombardi Cancer Foundation’s Golf Classic for 44 years.  

In 2017, Bart and Cherry Starr introduced the Starr Children's Fund, which is dedicated to raising funds to support  pediatric cancer research and treatments.  

FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGNS

Bart Starr used to write letters to all starting quarterbacks at the beginning of each season. After his passing in 2019, Bart’s wife Cherry is carrying on the tradition to honor his legacy. In her letter, Cherry asks each quarterback to sign a team helmet for auction during Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Money raised benefits the Fund’s efforts to impact the lives of true heroes, pediatric cancer patients.
