Empty Bowl
Welcome to our Empty Bowl Section, a poignant event that melds artistic expression with a call to action against homelessness. The Empty Bowl event is a humble yet powerful reminder of the void faced by families struggling with homelessness, and the collective effort needed to fill that void with hope, shelter, and sustenance. By partaking in this event, you not only get to cherish the beauty of handcrafted bowls but also contribute to a nourishing foundation for those in need. Each bowl, an emblem of warmth and community support, underscores the difference we can make together.
2024 empty bowl
This year's Empty Bowl was a great success because of our amazing sponsors, ticket buyers, craft vendors, committee members, and restaurant soup donors. With nearly 300 guests in attendance we were able to raised over $30,000 to support our homeless service programs.
