A charitable Hermitage area event has been rescheduled to this coming spring.
The Empty Bowls fundraising initiatives help to provide food for hungry people, while at the same time raising awareness about poverty in the community.
The way the fundraiser will work is quite simple; the public is invited to enjoy a meal of soup and fresh bread, and when they are done, they will be able to keep and use the bowl. The food will be donated by members of the local commercial community, and tickets are $20 each.
The organizers noted that the monies raise will benefit those living in Mercer County, and along with the food, there will be an even split draw, a basket raffle and silent auction. There will be entertainment, and each of the bowls will be handcrafted by area students and potters.
Marketing a fundraiser like this is often an important part of helping it to reach its goals, and a printer will have a variety of options for this, including flyer printing services.
This fundraising evening was originally set for April 9, and then moved to August 20, and now the organizers are hoping to make it third time lucky with a new date of April 15, 2021. It is set to be hosted at Hope Center for Arts and Technology, and the doors will open to the diners at 4:00 pm.
