Empty Bowl

What is Empty Bowl?

Each year, hundreds join us to take a stand against hunger in our community at our only annual fundraiser – the Empty Bowl Luncheon. Our annual Empty Bowl events have raised enough to provide millions of meals to those struggling with hunger in Hall, Forsyth, Dawson, Lumpkin and Union counties. Along with lunch, each guest receives a hand-painted bowl to take home as a reminder of the empty bowls we are working together to fill in our community.

’til no one is hungry!
