Empty Bowls Clarksville to raise money for food programs

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Tickets are on sale for Empty Bowls lunch and dinner fundraising events on Tuesday Feb. 23.

There is a wonderful “grassroots” movement growing around the country with the mission of feeding the hungry, disadvantaged and homeless and it’s called “EMPTY BOWLS.”

The effort is based on the international Empty Bowls program, where volunteers create bowls that are used to serve a meal of soup and bread during a fundraiser. The bowls serve as a reminder that there are always empty bowls in the world.

Empty Bowls Clarksville is a community project that supports two non-profit organizations in the Clarksville Area. Loaves & Fishes and Urban Ministries, Grace Assistance Food Bank benefit from the annual Empty Bowls event in Clarksville. We are committed to raising awareness of the issue of hunger in the Clarksville-Montgomery County community. This goal is achieved through our annual fundraising event that supports local food and hunger programs.

Ticket can be found at Empty Bowls Clarksville 2016.
