Check out our story on YouTube.com! September is Hunger Action Month……….Please come and join us for our 4th Annual Empty Bowl Lunch Thursday, September 16, 2010, 11:00am – 2:00pm, at the First Baptist Church in Gainesville Tickets are sold in advance for $25. Each guest is served a simple meal and selects one of the beautiful handmade bowls to take home as a reminder of the many individuals and families who face food insecurity in our community. All proceeds benefit the Georgia Mountain Food Bank. The "Empty Bowl" idea began in 1990 as a Michigan high school art class project to raise funds for a food drive. The students made ceramic bowls, served a meal of soup and bread, and invited guests to keep the bowl as a reminder of hunger in the world. We need volunteers to help!!! If you have experience and would love to work on a project that is rewarding and benefits so many people in our community please contact Randi Dyer at 770-967-0075 or by email at randi@gamountainfoodbank.org. This is our largest annual fundraiser and we would love to see it grow!Community Partners
