Coming Soon: Lakeville Resource Center's Empty Bowls Fundraiser

Become a 'souper supporter' of the Eagan & Lakeville Resource Centers when you attend the organization's fourth annual Empty Bowls fundraising event on March 21.

The event is scheduled from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Mount Calvary Lutheran Church in Eagan. This unique fundraiser pairs handmade art with hunger relief; each year local potters craft and donate hundreds of handmade clay bowls for the event.

Attentdees at the event select one of those handmade bowl, make a suggested donation toward hunger relief, enjoy soup and bread provided by a handful of local restaurants, and leave with an “empty bowl” as a symbol of hunger in the community.

The Eagan & Lakeville Resource Centers is a 501(c)3, nonprofit organization committed to serving those in need and to eliminating hunger in Dakota County, serving upward of 1,000 families each month. For more information on Empty Bowls or the Eagan & Lakeville Resource Centers, visit www.eaganrc.org or phone 651-688-3189.

Contributing restaurants include Granite City, Jensen's Supper Club, Houlihans and others.
