Bowls stand ready for delivery at the Visual Arts Center in Punta Gorda last year.
The 13th Annual Empty Bowls Benefit Dinner will be held this year at the Cultural Center of Charlotte County, 2280 Aaron St., Port Charlotte on Tuesday, from 4 p.m. - 7 p.m.
Tickets are now available. For a donation of $12, each attendee receives the opportunity to sample various soups from some of the area’s best eateries and takes home one of the handcrafted “empty” bowls made by the students and citizens of Charlotte County.
There will be live musical entertainment again this year for all to enjoy. A silent and live auction along with handcrafted vases filled with flowers will also be available to raise additional funds for our cause. Proceeds support the Charlotte County Homeless Student Program, The Charlotte County Homeless Coalition, Good Samaritans, and the Yah Yah Girls’ Back Pack Kidz to continue preventing hunger in our community.
