Here’s How Today’s Super Bowl Teams Are Showing Excellence Off the Field By Giving Back
In the Spirit of Super Bown LVIII kicking off today at 6:30 p.m. ET (3:30 p.m. PT), we wanted to highlight the efforts of both teams to give back and make a difference.
Kansas City Chiefs: Souper Bowl of Caring
The Kansas City Chiefs are a national sponsor of the Souper Bowl of Caring, which inspires people to tackle hunger in their local communities. “What if everyone watching the BIG GAME gave just $1 to hunger relief in their community? That would be over 330 million meals from just ONE event!”
Through the mobilization of resources such as churches, schools, civic groups, and caring individuals this movement has generated over $193 million in support that stays local to its communities.
Their signature annual event consists of thousands of individuals across the country participating in fundraisers for their local food charities. Harnessing the energy and enthusiasm of the Super Bowl weekend, individuals collect dollars in soup pots and canned food for those in need. They send every dollar and food donation directly to a local charity of their choice.
You can donate a dollar or make a food donation to a local food charity near you this weekend in support of this initiative!

They use collective and innovative community-focused strategies like their award-winning STEAM education, nationally recognized youth football programs, and community partnerships with leading nonprofit organizations. Helping the Bay Area youth “tackle what is possible.”
