Onekama School hosted an
EMPTY BOWLS SOUP dinner on Friday, February 19th in the Onekama School
Cafeteria. An early estimate is that
over $1300 was raised. All proceeds will be donated to
the St Joseph Church Community Food Pantry. The Empty
Bowls project received support and sponsorship from the
Imagine/RENDER Group, a Wendy's Restaurant grant for the
Arts, contributions from local restaurants, bakeries,
businesses, Onekama School National Honor Society,
Community citizens and the Onekama School Art students.
The Art Students busily created each and every bowl
individually. The NHS students organized the dinner: food
recruitment, publicity and people power to serve the
dinner. A large crowd joined us in an effort to make an
ending to hunger a priority within our community and the
world. Nation Honor Society Service Award Project Introduction: Chris Wasserman / NHS Presentation & World Hunger: Jill Wagar / Making the Bowls: Jen Carpenter/ Preparation for the Event: Emily Manke / Hunger Demonstration: Toria Miller |
