Bobby Portis kicks off annual PB&J Challenge with Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- In the spirit of Dr. King, one Bucks star is also giving back. 

Bobby Portis helped launch Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin's PB&J Challenge Monday morning. 

It's a two-month fundraiser to not only get donations of pantry staples like peanut butter and jelly, but also to raise awareness about hunger in our communities. 

Portis says like Dr. King, he wants to use his platform to help others. 

"Obviously I'm not Dr. Martin King, but I'm a man who has a voice and can help inspire, help give back, help motivate others in different ways," Portis said.
