Empty Bowls

Empty Bowls is St. Vincent de Paul of Baltimore's signature fundraising event. St. Vincent de Paul of Baltimore is a leading provider of community services that build better futures. Each year, over 55,000 people are helped through their comprehensive services that stabilize families, meet basic needs, and foster self-sufficiency. Every $100 raised through support of the Empty Bowls event provides 50 meals for people in Baltimore who are hungry.

At Empty Bowls, ticket holders get to eat a soup supper (soups from Baltimore's top restaurants!), partake in raffles, a silent auction and family entertainment... and each gets to choose a handcrafted ceramic bowl to take home to remind them of those whose bowls remain empty. This year's event is:

Saturday, March 23, 2013
Lunch from 12:00-2:30 or
Dinner from 5:00-7:30
at
Timonium Fairgrounds
2200 York Rd. 
4-H Building

Tickets are $20 per person (children under 5 are free).

To support the movement to prevent hunger and homelessness in our community, eighth grade girls spent two days in advisory constructing ceramic bowls and two days glazing them. We will donate 26 bowls to the event and hopefully, many can attend as well! Here are some photos of the girls working on the bowls, and the finished pieces:
