FOR CHARITIES

Get your community collecting for you.

Join the Tackle Hunger Map so local schools, congregations and businesses can find you, see what you need and run a campaign on your behalf.

Free to join. No minimums, no fees.

Why charities join the map

  • Get found by local groups

    Groups search the map by ZIP code when they choose who to support.

  • Say exactly what you need

    List your most-needed items so donations match your shelves, not just what's in people's pantries.

  • Keep 100% of what's raised

    Groups deliver food and funds directly to you. Nothing passes through Tackle Hunger.

YOUR LISTING

This is what groups see when they find you

Groups browse the map, tap a pin and decide from your listing. Claim yours so the details are right and groups can reach you directly.

  • Your need level, so groups see where help goes furthest.

  • Phone, website and directions that are up to date

How it works for charities

Five steps to rally your community around your charity this Souper Bowl of Caring.

STEP 1 OF 5

Pick your campaign dates

Choose when you'd like groups to collect for you. Some run campaigns for weeks before the Big Game, others just on game day.

  • Not sure how to get groups to support you?

    Ask your list of supporters to join the fundraising event. Consider a prize for the group that raises the most. Remember, 100% stays with your charity.

  • Don't see your charity on the map?

    Click Contact on the Tackle Hunger Map to add it. It's free, and you can receive donations directly through the map, but only once you're listed.

STEP 2 OF 5

Tell groups what you need

When you ask your support network (groups and people who have fundraised for you before), be specific about what you need and why. It encourages them to take part.

  • Food items

    Name your most-needed items

  • Cash donations

    Share what funds will cover

Tip: "Peanut butter and canned tuna" gets better results than "non-perishables."

STEP 3 OF 5

Make it a fun competition

Souper Bowl of Caring happens every year alongside the biggest game of the year. Use that excitement to your advantage.

  • Challenge groups to collect the most

    With five groups taking part, crown the one with the largest per-person collection as this year's Souper Bowl of Caring champs.

  • Bragging rights and a trophy

    An old soup pot with a sticker works perfectly. Some charities write the winner's name on it each year.

  • Watch your campaign grow

    One charity started with a handful of groups and now has more than 20 taking part, and it keeps growing.

STEP 4 OF 5
