This spring, Central California Food Bank will host a very special event to support our fight against hunger here in Central California.  Our Empty Bowls Virtual Event will take place on Thursday, May 20!  The pandemic has had an incredible impact on our community, and we are grateful for the continued support we have received to ensure that the additional need is being met.  Although this event is virtual, approximately 260 guests, sponsors and volunteers will come together to raise funds and awareness for our mission.  We gratefully request your participation in our efforts to bring food and hope to our neighbors who struggle with hunger.

The impact that your generous support makes is likely beyond anything you can imagine!  Together, we are able to feed a family of four for one week with just $10!  Our hope is to raise more than $60,000 at Empty Bowls, resulting in 490,000 more meals being provided for those in need, right here in our community!  Your support will help us meet our goal!

We are requesting your kind assistance by participating as an InKind Partner, providing a wonderful item, service or experience for our winning bidders to enjoy, to enhance the online auction component of our Empty Bowls virtual event.  In exchange for your very generous support, we are honored to appropriately recognize your participation and dedication to ending hunger in the Central Valley.
