Students at Tanglewood Elementary School in Fort Worth on Tuesday kicked off the 2013 Souper Bowl for Caring campaign, an effort to combat hunger by raising $1.3 million in cash and food items in North Texas.
Former TCU running back LaDainian Tomlinson joined other dignitaries in the school gym for the event, although unexpected winter weather delayed its start.
Students displayed art projects depicting the number of people at risk of hunger and performed a skit about donating canned food that was set to Gangnam Style, a popular video by a Korean rapper, said Cristina Curtis Barbe, a spokeswoman for the organization. Students are collecting canned food for the Tarrant Area Food Bank
