The Empty Bowls Committee is currently accepting applications from area soup kitchens and food pantries to be considered as a recipient of this year’s event funds. The deadline to submit an application is March 15.

Empty Bowls is a local organization that is dedicated to the national effort of feeding the hungry. Funds are raised through an annual event and is provided to local shelters, churches and other organizations that aid in the effort.

This year’s event will be held on Thursday, April 28 at 6 p.m. in the Saints Joseph and Paul Catholic Church Community Center, located at 609 East 4th Street.

Applications may be found online here.

Last year nearly $4,000 was presented to Woodlawn United Methodist Church who used the money to purchase a commercial dishwasher to not only help feed more individuals, but it allows Woodlawn to help the environment and cut the costs of purchasing paper products.

A representative from Woodlawn will give a brief presentation at this year’s event sharing their story of how Empty Bowls was able to help them feed the hungry.
