Since 2006, the annual Empty Bowls soup dinner and handmade bowl sale fundraiser has played a critical role in battling food insecurity in Cook County, MN. In collaboration with the Grand Marais Art Colony and the generous donations of local businesses. With an annual fundraising goal of $30,000, Empty Bowls plays vital role in our community’s health and well-being.
Funds from last year’s Empty Bowls event were distributed to Birch Grove Community School, Cook County Food Shelf, Cook County Public Health and Human Services, Cook County Ruby’s Pantry, Cook County Schools, Cook County Youth Agency Coalition, Cooperation Station Daycare, Great Expectations School Lunch Program, Oshki Ogimaag Charter School, and the Violence Prevention Center.
Empty Bowls Cook County is a 501c3 nonprofit and donations are tax-deductible to the extent provided by federal law.
