GREEN BAY -- Aaron Rodgers, a Northern California native, is partnering with the North Valley Community Foundation and donating $1 million to assist with the recovery and rebuild of these communities. 

Rodgers' major donation will support the victims of the Camp Fire in Butte County and focus on children school programs, before and after school, youth and high school sports and help build temporary housing for the displaced Paradise residents. 

The Camp Fire in Butte County has been declared the most devastating and deadliest wildfire in California history.

In addition, for Twitter users, State Farm and Neighborhood of Good has promised to donate $1 for every retweet, up to $1 million dollars, of Rodgers' video. 

All users have to do is retweet his video using the hashtag #retweet4good. Users have until Sunday, November 25 at midnight to share the video.
