LAKEPORT, Calif. – When the students of Terrace Middle School set their minds to tackling a goal, they get it done.
The students collected and donated 16 cases of hearty soups for the Souper Bowl of Caring.
Originally begun by youth groups across the country, the Souper Bowl welcomes people of all ages to be a part of the movement to tackle hunger.
Last year more than 260,000 youth participated in Souper Bowl of Caring, collecting more than $9.8 million in money and food for local hunger-relief charities.
That's a total of more than $90 million collected since the movement began in 1990.
Even better, it’s not too late for you to take part in this fantastic play.
The Food Pantry at United Christian Parish, located at 745 N Brush St in Lakeport, invites you to join them on Souper Bowl Sunday, Feb. 7, to tackle hunger together.
You can bring your cans of soup from 9 to 10 a.m. – and stay to join them for worship if you like at 10 a.m. – or from 11:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.
If you can’t make Souper Bowl Sunday you can still bring your cans of soup in next week Tuesday to Thursday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
