Sun. Feb. 5th: Souper Bowl of Caring

logoThe NFL Super bowl is February 5th. That is also the date of the annual “Souper Bowl of Caring” at Brookmeade. As in years past we try to alleviate hunger by bringing in cans of soup that we will deliver to Second Harvest Food Bank. February 5th is also “COW Sunday”, instead of passing around the shopping cart we will pass around the “Soup Pot” to collect money for Second Harvest and Heifer International. From September to December of 2016 we delivered 91 pounds of food to Second Harvest food bank. Last year’s “Souper Bowl” we collected 168 cans of soup. How many will we collect this year? That depends on you… to tackle hunger.
