How can you contribute to CRS Rice Bowl this Lent? Think about ordering a medium coffee instead of a large, and put the difference in your Rice Bowl. Or put in a dollar for each week of Lent—for example on the 2nd Sunday of Lent, put in $2. Maybe on a given day, contribute 25 cents for each time you use running water or lights that day.
