Annual “Empty Bowls” fundraiser scheduled for March 14th

“Empty Bowls,” an annual fund-raising event for the Salvation Army in north Mississippi, will be held this year on Wednesday, Mar. 14th.

Tickets for the “luncheon to feed the hungry” are $15 each. Each ticket holder gets a bowl of soup and a surprise gift. The surprise is in a paper bag. Each bag contains a pottery bowl created by a local potter, amateur or professional, so each is a surprise when the bag is opened. Doors at Building V of the Tupelo Furniture Mart in Tupelo will open at 10:30 am. Soup will be served from 11 am to 1 pm.

Empty Bowls is sponsored by the Salvation Army Women’s Auxiliary with help from the Tupelo Furniture Market, Franklin Collections, Reeds Manufacturing, and Murphree, Inc.
