February 5, 2012: New England Patriots vs. New York Giants - who will win?

 

Everybody wins when you collect donations on Superbowl Sunday and donate them to the Society of St. Andrew to feed hungry people.

 

Is your church or synagogue in the game? It's not too late! The Souperbowl of Caring offers young people a chance to lead the congregation in 'tackling' hunger as they collect money and food for agencies feeding the hungry.

 

For 20 years, the Souperbowl of Caring has promoted one way in which young people can address the problem of hunger in their communities. Last year, over 10,000 groups participated, raising nearly $10 million.

 

Find Minutes for Mission, hymns, skits, how-to suggestions, and other resources online, to help you make your congregation's Souperbowl efforts even more successful.

 

If you're looking for a cause to support with your congregation's Souperbowl donations this year, please consider the Society of St. Andrew. For just a little more than 2 cents a serving, we put fresh fruits and vegetables on the tables of hungry families.

 

If you're in one of our many gleaning areas, your church group may also want to glean with us. All the food picked is quickly transported to area food kitchens, pantries, and shelters. Click on "Our Locations" on the menu bar above to learn more.
