Empty Bowls 2012 was a huge success!

We had perfect weather for the 15th annual Empty Bowls fundraiser for The Idaho Foodbank. We almost sold out of 2,000 bowls that were donated!

We want to thank all our sponsors this year for a great event!

On the Friday after Thanksgiving, The Idaho Foodbank hosts Empty Bowls in downtown Boise on the Grove plaza

Throughout the year we collect handcrafted and hand-painted bowls from professional and amateur artisans, students, and studios. The event offers the opportunity to select a unique bowl from thousands and then enjoy a hot bowl of soup generously donated by one of several of our finest local restaurants. While you enjoy your meal, we encourage you to remember that not all our Idaho neighbors are able to meet the basic need of feeding their families. The funds raised by this event helps to provide free food assistance to those badly in need this winter.

Sponsorship and pre-sale opportunities are available.

Special thanks to our sponsors Albertsons/SuperValu, Ceramica, Moxie Java,
Lyle Pearson Boise, and 94.9 The River, for making this event possible!
