Soup For Life - National Soup Week Starting Friday 8th April

Calling All Restaurants!

For the second year running, Gorta has launched its exciting spring fundraising initiative called Soup for Life. They are asking soup lovers and foodies alike to help make hunger history by gathering friends, family and colleagues for a fun get together over a pot of soup and make a contribution to gorta’s work fighting hunger in Africa.

Gorta are inviting all restaurant owners to make a donation of €1 for each bowl of soup you sell during National Soup Week (8th - 15th April 2011). You can join all of the restaurants, hotels, pubs and cafés who participated last year and get involved for a day, a couple of days or maybe even the whole week!
