Brace yourselves sports fans....the SOUPER BOWL is almost upon us.
Yes the Souper Bowl of Caring! It is a youth-led, grassroots movement of caring, often young people joining together to fight hunger and poverty in their communities. It is an ideal way to engage communities of all faiths in the fight against hunger and poverty.
Each year, on or near NFL Super Bowl Sunday, Presbyterian churches join others in their communities asking their members to donate money or cans of food to those in need. That’s not all- on the Saturday before the big game- your students can participate in a Service Blitz, doing volunteer work within your communities.
Since 1990, $33 million has been raised for charities across the country. Last year in the Plains and Peaks Presbytery the youth in 10 churches collected over $1600, collected 600+ and had over 120 service blitz hours.If you need more information- please contact me!
