In 2009 Empty Bowls raised over $13,000 for Montreal's hungry

Again this year, the Unitarian Church of Montreal  joined forces with Congregation Dorshei Emet to make Empty Bowls — a project to raise money for the hungry — a great success.  On April 18, $6,500 was raised at the Unitarian Church by people who bought a hand-crafted bowl, enjoyed some soup and bread and listened to some great jazz. The following weekend, Empty Bowls raised more than $7,000 at Congregation Dorshei Emet. All the money is pooled to help the six Montreal beneficiaries that help the hungry.
