Kick Off Your Semester of Service w/ the Souper Bowl of Caring!

Model Service and Change the Game!

Join us for the 20^th Souper Bowl of Caring (January 18 - February 14, 2009).

The Souper Bowl of Caring is a national youth-led movement to fight hunger and poverty around one of our nation's most indulgent times. It began with one group of youth who believed they could make a difference. Now, 20 years later, it is transforming the time around the Super Bowl into a movement of giving and serving. Last year, groups just like yours collected and donated over $10 million in cash and cans. This year, you can help make an even bigger impact!

It's Easy!

1. Register. Go to www.souperbowl.org and sign up. Once registered you'll receive a free Starter Kit including an educational DVD about hunger and poverty and the organizations that help address the needs of hurting people in neighborhoods across the country. You'll also receive a guide to planning your collection, posters, and other tools.
2. Learn, Serve & Collect. Some time between January 18 and February 14, 2009 incorporate the study of hunger and poverty into some area of the curriculum. Then organize a simple service project and collection of money, canned foods or other items to benefit a nonprofit that serves those in need in your local community. Visit our online Resource Center to access hunger curricula, event materials and other helpful tools.
3. Report. As soon as your collection is completed, report your total online or call 1-800-358-SOUP (7687). Reporting is the only way to tie your collection to the national movement.
4. Donate. Finally, donate 100% of your collection to the nonprofit of your choosing in your own community and celebrate the power of caring!
