"As our bowls are filled, let us remember all those that remain empty"

Join the hunger relief effort by taking part in the Empty Bowls Fundraiser on Friday, Nov. 13 at University Reformed Church in East Lansing.

Empty Bowls is an international grassroots fundraising effort where a group or artist creates and donates bowls and serves a simple meal, such as soup. Participants pay for the bowl, which is meant to serve as a reminder of everyone who goes without food.

Reach Studio Art Center, "a non-profit neighborhood place to do art," donated the bowls for this event. A short presentation will be made at 7 p.m. A donation of $5 for the meal and $15 for each bowl is recommended, and the meal is free for children or for those experiencing financial hardship.
