Souper Bowl of Caring

Fred Cowgill of WLKY and Kroger would like to encourage you to join our “Souper Bowl of Caring”.  From now until the Super Bowl on February 7th, you can help by donating food at your local Kroger store.  Look for the convenient pre-bagged food or drop off what you would like in the large bins near the exit.  Join our team to help end hunger!

Carrie Weil, WAVE3 Sunrise Anchor, invites you to to join the Pound For Pound Challenge, sponsored by NBC’s The Biggest Loser and General Mills.  The dollar value of 1 pound of food will be donated to Dare To Care Food Bank for every pound you lose during the upcoming season of The Biggest Loser.

DARE TO CARE FOOD BANK was founded in 1971, when a stunned Louisville community was confronted with the horrifying news that right in their own city, on Thanksgiving Day, a nine year old boy had died of starvation.

DARE TO CARE became the rallying cry of people throughout the area as they joined together to attack the very real problem of hunger in their neighborhoods.

Dare to Care Food Bank serves 13 counties. These counties include: Jefferson, Shelby, Bullitt, Oldham, Spencer, Carroll, Trimble, and Henry in Kentucky, and Floyd, Clark, Harrison, Washington, and Crawford in Indiana. Click here to see a map of our service area.
