Cobourg ON – (January 29, 2018) – Fleming College’s Cobourg Campus will this week host its annual Souper Bowl and Bake Sale to raise money for the Northumberland United Way.

In partnership with The Help Centre and Global HR Centre Inc., Souper Bowl will take place on Wednesday, Jan. 31 from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. For only $10 visitors can enjoy a bottomless bowl of soup/chili, bottled water and a fresh-baked roll.
