Empty Bowls Monongalia:
Robinette Legal Group, PLLC is a glad supporter of Empty Bowls Monongalia. This project seeks to provide support for organizations that combat hunger while also promoting awareness about local hunger issues. Since its beginning as a high school art project in Michigan in 1990, Empty Bowls events have raised millions of dollars toward ending hunger.
The basic premise of an Empty Bowls event is simple: guests are served soup in a handmade ceramic bowl in exchange for a cash donation to fight hunger. They are asked to keep their bowl as a reminder of the meal’s purpose. Every time they take the bowl from the cupboard, they will be reminded that someone’s bowl is always empty and that on that one occasion they helped alleviate hunger and could choose to do so again at any time.
