Our mission is to create awareness and raise funds to eliminate hunger in our communities, One Bowl at a Time. We enlist the creative talents of local potters, artists, educators, students, and volunteers to craft hand-painted bowls, which serve as the centerpiece of a fun, community-driven event that raises money and awareness in the fight against hunger.
Any local organization whose mission aligns with ours in addressing food insecurity is welcome to submit a grant application for consideration. Net proceeds from our Annual Empty Bowls Naples fundraising event, held in January, will be distributed to eligible nonprofit organizations.
Our Application is Closed for 2026
