14th Annual Empty Bowls!

Community is at the heart of Empty Bowls. We’re thrilled to partner with Faithful Shepherd Catholic School for this wonderful afternoon of food, fun and fundraising to fight local hunger in Dakota County!

For a suggested $30 donation ($15 for kids), guests enjoy a simple meal of soup and bread, donated by local restaurants, and leave with a hand-crafted empty bowl as a reminder of those who are hungry in our community.

Your support will help The Open Door continue to bring fresh and healthy food to thousands in Dakota County!

Who: Community members of all ages!
What: Food & Fun Benefiting The Open Door Pantry
Where: Faithful Shepherd Catholic School

3355 Columbia Drive, Eagan, MN 55121

When: Saturday, April 29th 11 a.m. – 2 p.m
