During the making of "Holiday Touchdown: A Bears Love Story," Hallmark partnered with Bears Care, the organization’s charitable arm, to add a special touch to the film that would benefit the Chicagoland community.
Bears Care partnered with Hallmark to auction two featured walk-on roles in the movie "Holiday Touchdown: A Bears Love Story." Proceeds from the charity auction directly benefited Bears Care to support community programs in the Chicagoland area. Fans Carrie May-Borich and Phillip Salamone won the auction and attended the filming session on July 17 at Halas Hall alongside the movie cast.
The winners participated in filming a scene depicting the annual Bears Care Gala. While on set, May-Borich and Salamone met Bears coach Ben Johnson, tight end Cole Kmet, and Connie Payton, the wife of Hall of Fame running back Walter Payton.
