Souper Bowl of Caring Food & Fund Drive
Let’s tackle hunger one can at a time.
While teams battle it out on the field, our community can come together for something even bigger: tackling hunger close to home.
Friday, February 6 | 7:00am-5:30pm

The Souper Bowl of Caring, hosted by News 4, Fox 11, and Nevada Sports Net, brings our community together to fight hunger at a time when support is needed most. All donations benefit the Food Bank of Northern Nevada, helping provide food to children, families, and seniors across northern Nevada and the eastern California Sierra.
