This Year’s Empty Bowls Fundraiser has a 2020 Drive-Thru Twist!

Join Expressions Pottery Workshop, the Women’s Club of East Granby and Friend to Friend for the 20th Annual Empty Bowls Drive-Thru fundraiser on Saturday, October 24th, 11:30am-1:30pm. All proceeds benefit the Friend to Friend Food Pantry which provides food to pre-qualified East Granby, CT residents in need. In lieu of a sit down event this year, they will be hosting a drive-thru venue to safely continue this Fall tradition.

You can use the mail-in form on our website to purchase ticket(s) for your To-Go-Bag(s) or purchase on-line at www.friendtofriendeg.com. Each bag will contain a hand-potted bowl, one coupon for a featured bowl of soup and one coupon for a featured dessert confection from participating restaurants/shops (valid through 12/31/2020). An overview of the event and participating restaurants will also be included. And don’t worry, they didn’t forget — you’ll also receive a complimentary pumpkin from Peter L. Brown!

On Saturday, October 24, follow signage for the drive-thru line at the EG Community/Senior Center parking lot for pick up. Volunteers will be masked and gloved to hand out items while you remain in your vehicle. To help keep lines moving, they ask that ticket holders registered with last names beginning A-L arrive between 11:30-12:30 and last names M-Z arrive between 12:30-1:30.

Please support this more-important-than-ever fundraiser which helps stock the pantry through the busy winter season. Thank you!
