St. Anthony’s and Kraft Team up to Tackle Hunger

Have you ever wondered what it’s like to watch one of college football’s great spectacles, a full day’s fun with a group of your friends in some of the best seats in the house??? Do you wish you could feel good about purchasing tickets for a family outing this holiday season??

Well, if you answered yes, the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl would love to make it happen for you.

This December, the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl will be auctioning off multiple Bowl experience packages, and the proceeds will benefit local hunger relief partners – including St. Anthony’s. Packages include once in a life time experiences that you can’t buy anywhere else! You’ll have a chance to be on the field for pre-game warm ups, attend a pre-game VIP Party with food and drink included, or even remove the tee from the field after kickoff. This year’s game will be held on December 29th at 1:00pm at AT&T Park and will feature the Midshipmen from Navy and a team from the Pac-12. Auctions will go live on December 5th and details can be found here.

For the third consecutive year, St. Anthony’s will be one of the leading nonprofits featured in the 2012 Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl. This year’s teams will be announced on December 3rd, at the conclusion of the greatest regular season in all of sports.   In conjunction with Macy’s and KGO-TV, the Bowl will donate the cost of one meal to St. Anthony’s, Glide, and the Food Bank for every ticket sold to the Game.

The Bowl has donated over 200,000 meals to the Bay Area’s hungry. Over 60,000 of those went to St. Anthony’s.

For the third straight year, players from one of the competing teams will visit St. Anthony’s and serve meals to our guests – this year on Christmas Day.

The Bowl will continue to raise awareness with radio ads, recognition on the website and social media outlets, and PA & Scoreboard messages at the game.

The Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl is the only one of 35 bowl games that is directly associated with a social cause, so . . . . .

Don’t miss the chance to spike one in the end zone for St. Anthony’s and help us score a touchdown for 1 in 5 of the hungry people here in San Francisco.
