River City Food Bank's Empty Bowls 2019

Presented by River City Food Bank and CapRadio at SAFE Credit Union Convention Center

Empty Bowls, River City Food Bank’s largest fundraiser of the year, is a humble, community-based affair. Hundreds gather to share soup provided by the generosity of local restaurants and served by some of our most recognized community leaders. The event is also a reminder of the hungry among us. All participants take home a local artist’s hand crafted bowl. Each bowl represents a family, a child, a senior, a student, a person in between addresses, someone struggling with illness, or someone who feels helpless, hopeless and hungry.

The two-day Empty Bowls event features two separate meals. Monday’s evening meal features a soup supper complete with wine, hors d’oeuvres, soups, and desserts. Tuesday’s luncheons (two seatings) feature a traditional soup lunch and desserts.

Funds raised at Empty Bowls (2018 event generated more than $300,000) creates a positive effect all year long. The Food Bank leverages the publicity and proceeds to provide healthy and nutritious food to more than 110,000 individuals who access River City Food Bank’s programs each year.
