Empty Bowls Fundraiser was SOUPer fun!

A great turnout at the Empty Bowls Fundraiser hosted by the Giving Circle of HOPE. Thank you to everyone who participated and enjoy the photos.

This past Friday our community joined together to raise funds to fight hunger in Northern Virginia. It was a fun event with tables of beautiful ceramic bowls, good food and a warm community spirit.

Empty Bowls wouldn’t be Empty Bowls without the help of our potters who gave so freely of their time and talent to make our bowls. Nor would we have been able to provide the delicious soup, bread and desserts without the support of our restaurant and bakery food donors. And thank you to our sponsors for their generous support. And lastly, we couldn’t make any of this happen without the help of all our volunteers. 

We don't have the final count of the money raised for Food for Others yet, will post as soon as we have it.
