This annual event encourages the community to donate non-perishable food.

GCC’s “Souper Bowl of Caring” is February 11 so please consider bringing in non-perishable food items for donation to Help By Phone. They are in need of items such as beef stew, chili, pork and beans, jars of applesauce, spaghetti sauce, bags of rice, boxed dry milk, spaghetti, and small boxes of Jell-O.

Here is a helpful guideline for Super Bowl-themed donations:

• The average NFL player requires 5000- 6500 calories a day to perform throughout a game.
• The NFL allows teams to carry 53 players on their active roster so with two teams that is about 530000 calories.
• That’s 3397 cans of Campbell’s Chicken Noodle soup to get these 106 people through the day.
