Title: Placerville, California Empty Bowls
Location: Placerville, California
Description:
On Saturday, November 14th, El Dorado County residents will have a chance to enjoy a dinner of soup and bread and help ease hunger abroad and here at home. Sponsored by the El Dorado Peace and Justice Community, the 7th Annual Empty Bowls event will take place at the St. Patrick Catholic Church, Sacramento & Fiske Streets, Placerville, CA from 4:30 – 8:00 pm.

Carla Turoff, El Dorado Peace and Justice Community board member and organizer says: “Empty Bowls is a small gesture that keeps us all connected to an understanding of how things really are for a large number of our fellow humans. It is also a way of remaining connected to one another here, in our local activist community. Hopefully, it helps to keep us dedicated, in the long term, to finding a real solution to the problems of poverty, injustice, and hunger in our world. It has three objectives: To raise funds to feed hungry people, to raise awareness about the issues of hunger and inequality in our local and global communities and to remind people that through artistic creativity we can help to create positive social change.”
