“We ask you to ‘help us serve those who serve us,’” the USBG wrote on its donation website. “The closure of bars, restaurants and venues means that these vital members of our community are no longer able to earn wages and take home tips.”

The Miller Brewing Co. is headquartered in Milwaukee, Wis. And Wisconsin is one of a number of states that has virtually shut down the service industry to try and contain the fast-spreading virus, FOX 6 reported.
