DOTHAN, Ala. (WDNews) — The Empty Bowls Dothan project will host its annual fundraiser on Saturday, February 1, at the Cultural Arts Center from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The event, sponsored by Five Star Credit Union, helps combat hunger in the Wiregrass area.
Participants can purchase handmade ceramic bowls, which include a meal of soup, bread, and water. Bowls will be sold at varying prices, with all proceeds supporting the Wiregrass Area Food Bank. Every $10 raised provides enough food to feed a family of four for a week.
Empty Bowls Dothan, founded by potter Lynn Koning, encourages community involvement through bowl-making sessions hosted at the Cultural Arts Center, which also offers pottery and art classes.
