Empty Bowl to Fight Hunger Dinner

Sunday, February 21, 2016
4:00 pm7:00 pm
Sandy Spring Friends School (Sandy Spring, MD)

Sandy Spring Friends School would like to invite you to participate in our Empty Bowl endeavor to fight hunger. The dinner will be from 4:00-7:00 pm in Westview Dining Hall at Sandy Spring Friends School. At that dinner, participants (and you are of course invited!), will be welcome to choose a favorite bowl, share a simple meal, and then take the bowl home as a reminder that 15+ million American children go to bed daily without dinner. All funds gathered that night will be sent to Feeding America to help fund their Backpack program supporting children in food-insecure families.
