The locations are listed in date order from Sunday, February 20th through Saturday, February 26th with the meal time for that site*There is a wonderful grassroots movement called "Empty Bowls" growing around the country with a mission to feed the hungry, disadvantaged and homeless. It's based on the international Empty Bowls program. In Clarksville, volunteers paint and donate bowls, which are chosen to take home after a fundraiser meal of soup and bread. These bowls serve as reminders of empty bowls in our community. Empty Bowls Clarksville supports Loaves & Fishes, Urban Ministries and The Food Initiative, three non-profit organizations working to feed the Clarksville's hungry. Empty Bowls Clarksville is committed to raising the awareness of hunger in our community, and this goal is achieved through bowl-painting parties during the year, and the fundraising meal in February each year.
