The Meineke Car Care Bowl of Texas is dedicated to serving our local community and to leave a lasting legacy for a distinctively Texan charity. We intend to make the bowl game a cherished Houston tradition.
Bowl to Establish Lasting Legacy to Houston
Texans not only have big ideas they also have big hearts. The Meineke Car Care Bowl of Texas is proud to be aligned with DePelchin Children’s Center in Houston as the Bowl’s honored charitable beneficiary.
The bowl will donate a portion of the proceeds of the game to this worthwhile institution establishing the Bowl’s lasting legacy to the community.
Meineke Car Care Bowl of Texas Impact
Over the last five years, Houston’s bowl game has generated $25,000,000 in economic impact for the city of Houston on an annual basis and donated nearly $400,000 to the DePelchin Children’s Center. The Bowl looks forward to continuing the football tradition of Texas through its positive impact in the community for years to come.
