Handmade Bowls Full of Soup, Sundaes, and Love: A Fundraiser for HFVT

I received an unexpected gift a few weeks ago from the children of the Charlotte Congregational Church.  Our Board Member, Marcia Bristow brought me a hand shaped, ceramic bowl made especially for the “Soup Supper” fundraiser on March 13th that benefited Hunger Free Vermont.  The children molded 75 bowls and hand painted them with colorful glazes, each one a unique creation.  The children then welcomed their community to enjoy homemade soups served in the bowls along with bread and ice cream sundaes. Dinner was free and children collected donations for Hunger Free Vermont raising more than $700 for our organization.

Thank you to the children of the Charlotte Congressional Church for this wonderful fundraiser.  You are special kids, and I really love my bowl!
