Roers 11th annual Chili Feed for United Way returns in 2020, but this time it’s going to be a virtual affair.
“This year, people can go to chilifeedfargo.com and buy a voucher that can be used for a cup of chili and Texas Toast from last year’s Chili of Choice winner and this year’s chili sponsor, Legends Sports Bar & Grill in Moorhead,” according to a press release.
United Way of Cass Clay recently kicked off its annual drive, this year with a goal of $5.8 million aimed at helping to end poverty.
The annual chili feed, traditionally held at the Roers shop, last year saw approximately 900 people attend, raising nearly $70,000 for United Way. Over the past 10 years, according to press notes, nearly $285,000 has been raised, and more than 12,500 cups of chili have been served.
“Every year, the Roers Chili Feed for United Way is an event our community looks forward to,” said Jim Roers, CEO of Roers Companies. “And the dollars raised do so much good for those in need in our community. We didn’t want to cancel, so our team got creative. This virtual option is a way to rally our community and bring people together for a common purpose: to create a better tomorrow for everyone.”
Historically, more than 50 types of chili have been offered. All proceeds benefit United Way of Cass Clay.
“Having a cup of chili helps to reduce homelessness, provides food for people who are hungry, helps children be successful in school, connects people with job training, and ultimately lifts families out of poverty,” according to press notes.
