Scroll down for your easy steps to participate in Souper Bowl of Caring. But first, some information in case you are interested in sponsoring the Souper Bowl of Caring!
The Souper Bowl of Caring is the signature event for Tackle Hunger. This program has raised close to $200 million for food charities with thousands of mobilized groups across the country helping support local hunger relief. For businesses who might be interested in sponsoring the Souper Bowl of Caring each year, we invite you to help us grow the power of community mobilization and the importance of local action that supports universal access to healthy foods. Since 100% of what is raised by local groups mobilized by Tackle Hunger stays at local food charities, sponsorships help us make this program grow and become even more effective.
Join us for an exciting opportunity to raise funds and support local food charities—all while celebrating the thrill of the Big Game! Every $25 donated to us creates $450 for charities in need through this amazing program and others like it. If you will be in New Orleans for the Big Game in February, join us for Souper Bowl of Caring LIVE where we will help Culture Aid NOLA distribute food to those without a bowl of soup to eat. Learn more here.
This annual campaign starts in January and runs through February 9th, 2025. There are other programs that can be used year-round to help support food charities in the same way.
FIRST DOWN - SELECT YOUR FOOD CHARITY
Feel free to choose whatever charity in your community you wish to support.
If you aren't sure what charity to support, go to the Tackle Hunger Map and pick a local food charity to champion. You can see each charity's needs based on the color of their pin. If your charity isn't on the Map, don't worry. You can easily add it by clicking on the "Contact" button on the Map itself and add a new charity.
SECOND DOWN - CHOOSE YOUR PATH
How do you want to run your campaign? Will you run an in-person food drive? Collect cash donations in soup pots? Both? It really doesn't matter to us! We also make it easy to run a virtual campaign for both food and cash donations.
THIRD DOWN - REGISTER YOUR FUNDRAISER CAMPAIGN WITH US
Tell us who you are. This is where you become a part of the Souper Bowl of Caring team! If you need any help at all, feel free to call us at 1-800-358-SOUP or email us at info@tacklehunger.org.
