No matter which team is your favorite for the upcoming Super
Bowl XLVII on February 3, 2013, we all win when we root for the Wakefield
Interfaith Food Pantry (WIFP) during the Souper
Bowl of Caring drive!
WIFP is encouraging everyone in the community to collect
monetary donations and much needed food items to stock the pantry shelves during
The Souper Bowl of Caring which is a national endeavor to use the
energy of the Super Bowl to mobilize youth in a united effort to care for
people in their local communities who are hungry and those in need. Super Bowl
weekend – the first Sunday in February – can be nation's largest celebration of
giving and serving – if we all participate!
The WIFP leadership and volunteers are asking businesses,
churches, and other organizations to offer special promotions to their clients
and members to spark donations. In addition, families and friends who host
Super Bowl parties are encouraged to ask their guests to make financial
donations or bring a couple of cans of food to the get-togethers on February 3,
2013, Super Bowl Sunday.
Most needed
food items can be seen on the WIFP website:
http://www.wifoodpantry.org/wi_mostneededfood.html.
Food items collected can be dropped off at the WIFP Drop Off
Box located on the lower level of the Americal Civic Center during open hours
or at the Town Hall Drop Off Box. (Be sure that you don’t donate food that has
expired!) Any financial donations can be mailed to the Wakefield Interfaith
Food Pantry at P.O. Box 1624, Wakefield, MA 01880.
For more information about participating in The Souper Bowl of Caring at the
Wakefield Interfaith Food Pantry, please email the WIFP at fooddrive@wifoodpantry.org.
