Volunteers sought for Carson City Empty Bowls Project this Saturday
Hi everyone. We are looking for volunteers for our upcoming 2019 Carson City Project Empty Bowls event! Empty Bowls is an international grassroots effort to fight hunger and was created by The Imagine Render Group.
The basic premise is simple: Potters and other craftspeople, educators and others donate and work with the community to create handcrafted bowls. Go here to learn about Saturday's Carson City Empty Bowls event.
Guests are invited to a simple meal of soup and bread. In exchange for a cash donation, guests are asked to keep a bowl as a reminder of all the empty bowls in the world. The money raised is donated to an organization working to end hunger and food insecurity.
Empty Bowls is the largest hunger-relief organization in the United States, Feeding America reports that the nation’s food banks could soon be overwhelmed by demand. Statistics show that 1 out of 8 Americans struggles with food insecurity every day. Millions of people have lost their jobs during the most recent recession and the number of food stamp recipients has increased dramatically. Your help is needed now more than ever.
Please find the time, make the commitment, get involved. Your single effort can have a profound impact. Please go to the link below and tell us about yourself and how you want to help!
