With the COVID-19 virus causing food shortages around the country, Massachusetts is one of the many states dealing with food insecurity. In efforts to help, Gillette Stadium will host a “Soup-R-Bowl” event to donate meals to over 1,000 families and veterans in need.
On Friday, those wanting to receive a free meal can drive curbside to the arena in Foxborough, where volunteers will deliver “Mother’s Day tailgate packages” directly to cars to ensure social distancing. The packages will contain soup, crackers, salads, eggs, cheese, and an assortment of vegetables and fruit.
The event will take place from 2 p.
