The love and concern for others that motivated Empty Bowls Virginia Peninsula (EBVP) since our first event in 2012 continues.
In this, the third year of the world wide COVID pandemic, we continue our fundraising efforts to feed the hungry
and food insecure in our peninsula communities. We are excited to again host The Empty Bowls event at the Historic Post Office (HPO) in Hampton, VA on
Friday, March 18th, 2022!
We again plan on distributing the funds collected in 2022 to SAME, THRIVE, Virginia Peninsula FoodBank, FISH, Inc., Grove Christian Out-Reach Center and LINK of Hampton Roads, Inc.
Understanding the pressure the Covid-19 health crisis is placing on the community, we hope you will consider making a donation. Thank you.

About The Empty Bowls Project:
The first event was initiated by a Michigan art teacher in 1990 as a way to raise charitable funds for his
community. His idea spread, and Empty Bowls events now take place across the United States and in at least a dozen
other countries. Millions of dollars have been raised and donated to hunger-fighting organizations.Our Mission:
Empty Bowls Virginia Peninsula is engaged in a grassroots effort to raise both money and awareness in the fight
against hunger here on the peninsula: Hampton, Newport News, York and Poquoson, Williamsburg and James City. The Empty Bowls Project is an international grassroots effort to raise both
money and awareness in the fight against hunger. Learn More
