Empty Bowl Benefit Dinner
On Thursday, November 19, 2009, join the Northwest Philadelphia Interfaith Hospitality Network (NPIHN), a WOMEN’S WAY Community Women’s Fund grantee, for the annual Empty Bowl Benefit Dinner at Chestnut Hill College. NPIHN works with over a thousand volunteers from area congregations to serve homeless families in the community. For this event, local potters donate handmade bowls and restaurants donate soups, breads, and desserts. For a modest contribution ($15 for adults and $5 for children and students), guests select a bowl, fill it with delicious soup, and enjoy. At the end of the dinner, each attendee leaves with an empty bowl as a reminder that many in our country have empty bowls, not by choice, but because of unfortunate circumstances. For tickets and more information contact: 215-247-HOME (4663).
