Businesses and Faith Communities Needed to Tackle Hunger and Homelessness

Restaurants, faith communities and businesses throughout Milford, Stratford and Orange are needed to support or participate in the 'Souper Bowl' fundraising campaign to help the Beth-El Center and those in our community who are experiencing homeless or hunger.  The 'Souper Bowl' campaign leverages the biggest weekend of football to bring attention and support to the less fortunate who are in need of shelter and a warm meal.

"We’re so appreciative of the many churches and businesses in the community who will be collecting donations or donating a portion of their proceeds during Super Bowl weekend for this campaign,” says Jenn Paradis, Executive Director of the Beth-El Center.

On Saturday and Sunday, February 2nd-3rd, participating organizations will be fundraising or encouraging people to contribute to the campaign online at www.bethelmilford.org. All donations will go directly the Beth-El Center's shelter, soup kitchen and services offered to local men, women and families in need.  

To participate, faith communities and business can email jparadis@bethelmilford.org. Visit www.bethelmilford.org for a list of participating organizations.
