Our goal is to raise money to help fight hunger, to raise awareness about the issues of hunger and food security and to help bring about an attitude that will not allow hunger to exist.
The premise is simple: guests are served soup in a handmade ceramic bowl, made by Alta High Ceramics Students, in exchange for a donation of $10.00. All the proceeds will be donated to the Utah Food Bank.The guests are asked to keep their bowl as a reminder of the meal’s purpose. Every time they take the bowl from their cupboard, they will be reminded that someone’s bowl is always empty and that on this one occasion they helped to alleviate hunger and could choose to do so again at anytime.
