Empty Bowls Cook County is a 501c3 nonprofit working to battle food insecurity in Cook County, MN Guests are invited to a simple meal of soup and bread.

Empty Bowls is an international grassroots effort to fight hunger and was created by The Imagine Render Group. The money raised is donated to an organization working to end hunger and food insecurity. It is the collective genius of all the people involved that has made Empty Bowls what it has become. Events have now taken place across the United States and in at least a dozen other countries. Many millions of dollars have been raised and donated to hunger-fighting organizations. We could never have imagined all the things people have done or all the ways the project has touched people. Each individual or group organizing an event designs it around the needs of their own community and is responsible for their own event.
