CLEAR FORK EMPTY BOWLS
Feed Your Family and Feed Your Neighbors!
BELLVILLE, OH – On Sunday, November 14, 2021, the 3rd Empty Bowls soup luncheon will take place at Clear Fork High School, with event proceeds going to the Bellville Neighborhood Outreach Center (BNOC) food pantry to help put healthy meals on tables throughout the Clear Fork Valley. Guests will enjoy great food, spend time with family and friends, and fight hunger in our Bellville and Butler communities one bowl at a time.
The concept behind Empty Bowls is simple; come together as a community to help everyone obtain the nutritious food they need every day. At the event, guests will make a small contribution and enjoy a variety of soups, breads and desserts donated by local restaurants Black Dog Tavern, Brumby’s, Der Dutchman, Fast Eddie’s Pizza, Love Our Hero’s, V&M Restaurant, and Wishmaker House (as well as a few goodies from BNOC volunteers!). As a thank you and subtle reminder of the local fight against hunger, the attendees donating at least $15 are welcome to take home a one-of-a-kind bowl that was hand-painted by children and adults from throughout the Bellville and Butler communities, while supplies last.
2021 Clear Fork Empty Bowls would not be successful without the support of community members and generous sponsors, including Elite Insurance Agency, Terra Valley Excavating, Weekley Chrysler-Jeep-Dodge-Ram, Appleseed Veterinary Hospital, Beachy Family Chiropractic, Edward Jones Investments, Global Oilfield Services, Hursh Drug Bellville, Rustik Market, Smith True Value, Snyder Funeral Homes, Elzy Milling & Trade, Main Culture Salon, Sugar Mama Bakery, Wade Gardens, Wise Builders, Wilson Family Realty, Liberty Lawn Care, and Whitaker’s Natural Market.
Empty Bowls events have been held in communities across the country for years. While every community’s objectives remain the same, each event is self-developed and independent. The BNOC is extremely grateful for the opportunity to partner with community members and local businesses, joining together to support families across the Valley!
