Empty Bowls Event Helps Channel One
The annual Empty Bowls fundraiser for the Channel One Regional Food Bank is taking place at the Rochester Art Center today (October 8th) from 11am until 8pm. Attendees enjoy a simple meal of soup and bread provided by top local restaurants and bakeries. Participants are also able to choose a donated hand-painted bowl to take home as a memento of the event.
All proceeds from Empty Bowls will support Channel One Regional Food Bank’s mission…to partner with others to feed people in need.
With every dollar received, Channel One can supply enough food for four meals. Last year Channel One served more than 100,000 people in Southeast Minnesota and Western Wisconsin.
