Empty Bowls Dinner returns Thursday, October 15th for its third year, raising funds for three area nonprofits.

Mark your calendars for Thursday, October 15th, when the Holderness Service Council will bring the community together for a warm bowl of soup and an even warmer cause.

What Is Empty Bowls?

Empty Bowls is a simple idea with a big impact. For one evening, guests will gather to enjoy a meal of soups, breads, and desserts—and in return, they help fund the work of local nonprofits, making a real difference in our community.

This year's dinner takes place on:

Thursday, October 15th, 5:30 to 8:30 pm
Fosters Hall, Common Man Inn

Supporting Three Incredible Local Organizations

Proceeds from this year's dinner will benefit:

• The Bridge House — providing shelter and support services in our community
• The Common Man for Ukraine — supporting humanitarian relief efforts for Ukraine
• Pemi-Baker Habitat for Humanity — building homes and hope in the Pemi-Baker region

What's Included?

For just $25 per ticket (or 5 for $100), your evening includes:

• Endless soups
• Artisan breads
• Homemade desserts
• Live music
• A hand-painted bowl to take home as a keepsake

200 handmade bowls are available and given out on a first-come, first-served basis while quantities last. Once your soup is gone, you'll still have a one-of-a-kind reminder of the evening.

Three Years Running (And Growing)

This will be the 3rd annual Empty Bowls Dinner, and each year the event has raised more than $3,000 for local non-profits. This year, we're setting our sights higher: our goal is to raise $5,000 to support The Bridge House, The Common Man for Ukraine, and Pemi-Baker Habitat for Humanity.

Every bowl purchased is more than a meal—it's a tangible way to support neighbors in need, right here in our community.
