Want to be part of a winning team in Charlotte this Super Bowl season? Consider yourself drafted to play in the Souper Bowl of Caring, a national movement to address the needs of our neighbors who are struggling with hunger.

 

Loaves and Fishes, a local non-profit emergency food pantry program, will be collecting food donations at Myers Park Presbyterian Church on Saturday, February 4^th through Monday, February 6th. Additional collection sites will also be available all over the Charlotte area.  In 2015 Loaves and Fishes served 71,799 people in our community, 48% of whom were children.

Think about how many people will gather to watch the big game this Sunday: What if each person celebrating the Super Bowl gave a donation of money or food to those in need? Will Anderson, a local teen who serves on the national youth advisory board for this effort, notes that last year an impressive $960, 000 was raised in North Carolina through the Souper Bowl of Caring– but that the need is even greater.

Let’s outdo ourselves this year, Charlotte! Please consider making a donation before heading out to your Super Bowl festivity. Or consider collecting donations from friends and family at your Super Bowl party to drop off at Myers Park Presbyterian Church.
