EMPTY BOWLS PROJECT ©


Helping to feed the people in need is an international effort to fight hunger.


It’s simple: potters, other craftspeople and many others work with the community to create handcrafted bowls. The public is invited to a simple meal in exchange for a cash donation and are asked to keep the empty bowls for a reminder of all the empty bowls in the world.  The money is donated to an organization working to end hunger.  
The Empty Bowls meal is occurring in thousands of cities across the globe.  Find the time, make the commitment, get involved. 
“Volunteering is the ultimate exercise in democracy.   You vote in elections once a year but when you volunteer, you vote everyday about the kind of community you want to live in.”                                                                                   Author unknown
