Chicago Bears

The Chicago Bears and Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. are proud to announce the launch of a groundbreaking reusable cup program, marking the Chicago Bears as one of the first NFL teams to pilot a reusable cup program of this nature. The innovative initiative will bring reusable cups to the United Club at Soldier Field starting with the Bears’ matchup against the New England Patriots on Nov. 10 and continuing through the remainder of the season. Fans in the United Club will receive reusable cups for all beverages at no additional cost, with a simple request to return them after each game. With over 8,000 United Club members at each game, this initiative both enhances the gameday experience and supports the Chicago Bears’ ongoing sustainability efforts. Bold Reuse, a female-owned leader in reusable packaging, will work in partnership with ASM Global and Levy Restaurants, the stadium’s management company and concessionaire, to handle the cleaning and sanitization process. The expansion into Soldier Field will be the company’s first location in Illinois. The Chicago Bears and KDP are proud to launch this pioneering program and are excited to continue to grow sustainability efforts in the future. ???? #BearsSustainability #ReusableCups #DrPepper?

As the Chicago Bears prepare to face the Jacksonville Jaguars this Sunday in the NFL London Game, the team had the opportunity of hosting multiple community events throughout the week in London. ?????? One event was the “No Room for Racism” panel, where Bears alumnus Jerry Azumah joined former English soccer player and Tottenham Hotspur Football Club’s ambassador Ledley King to discuss the importance of allyship in the fight against racism with a group of students from Lea Valley Primary School. The event, part of the Premier League’s initiative during the UK’s Black History Month, allowed students to ask candid questions about race, inclusion and how to be allies. Reflecting on the discussion, Azumah said: “One of the students asked, 'how do you end racism?' It’s not simple, but having these discussions is the first step to combating it. We talked about the power of allies, support and staying vocal when something is wrong.” Partnering with the Premier League and Tottenham Hotspurs FC during Black History Month in UK is meaningful, as it aligns with the Bears’ commitment to promoting diversity, equity and inclusion both in London and back home in Chicago. ?????? #NFLLondonGame #BearsDown #NoRoomForRacism
