LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Monday marks 355 days until Super Bowl LVIII kicks off at Allegiant Stadium.
In the meantime, the Super Bowl Host Committee is looking for volunteers to help them prepare for the Big Game.

You can also sign up to get additional information on how to volunteer by signing up for the Host Committee's email newsletter or following them on Twitter @LVSuperBowlHC.
The Las Vegas Super Bowl Committee Charities have also been announced.

They're expected to invest $4 million and thousands of hours of work into the community leading up to Super Bowl LVIII.
