Dear Friend,
As we begin another year of fighting weekend hunger, we need your help with one of the most important ingredients in our Snack Paks: peanut butter.
This year, our goal is BIG: 40,000 jars of peanut butter to ensure every student has the nutrition and energy they need to learn, grow, and thrive. Peanut butter is more than just a snack—it is packed with protein, shelf-stable, kid-friendly, and easy to include in meals. For many children, the peanut butter we provide may be the most reliable source of protein they receive over the weekend.
We are excited to announce Peanut Butter Bowl® 2025 will serve as the kickoff to our campaign! Now in its 10th year, this incredible tradition has grown from just two San Antonio high schools in 2016 to more than 100 across south and central Texas. On August 28–30, 2025, teams and fans will come together for opening week football games and collect peanut butter for hungry kids. We are honored to be one of the organizations benefiting from this community-wide effort.
What makes the Peanut Butter Bowl even more inspiring are the voices of the coaches and players themselves. Many have shared that when they were younger, receiving something as simple as a jar of peanut butter would have made a real difference for their families. They talk about how this effort is "bigger than football and bigger than themselves". Players are honored to champion this cause across their campuses and beyond, bringing communities together for something greater.
👉 Here’s how you can join in and help us reach 40,000 jars:
- Donate jars of peanut butter (18 oz).
- Host a peanut butter drive at your workplace, church, or neighborhood.
-
Launch your own Virtual Peanut Butter Drive. It’s an easy way to rally your friends, coworkers, or family to join in the effort—without having to lift a jar!
-
Give online to help us purchase peanut butter in bulk.
Together, with the excitement of the Peanut Butter Bowl and the dedication of our community, we can not only meet but exceed our 40,000 jar goal for 2025!
With heartfelt gratitude,
