Souperbowl of Caring Pick GCM
January 8, 2015
GREER, SC – Greer Community Ministries is promoting the national Souperbowl of Caring event this month as a way to help feed hungry neighbors in the Greater Greer area. Primarily a youth-based campaign, the Souperbowl coincides with the National Football League’s Super Bowl game on Feb. 1.
Last year, 7,600 groups nationwide raised over $8.4 million in cash and food donations for local charities. Groups can sign up at souperbowl.org and designate Greer Community Ministries (GCM) as the local recipient for funds. There are a variety of ways that groups can raise funds to support GCM. Registered organizations will receive a Playbook of ideas.
Once money or food is collected, totals are registered with the national organization and donations are taken directly to GCM. For more information about how to get involved, call or email Hannah Rainwater, 877-1937 or [email protected]
GCM is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and is funded entirely through donations. Each week day, over 350 meals are prepared on site and served through Meals on Wheels and Senior Dining. GCM also provides emergency food and clothing to residents in the Greater Greer area.
