With a safe plan in action, following CDC protocol, the reinvented program will help those in need across 13 county service areas in North Texas. The Tarrant Area Food Bank transformed the Empty Bowls event to an online fundraiser where donors can sponsor boxes of food for families. "The spirit of the event continues, just now in a safer way that will put a literal spin on filling the bowls of our friends and neighbors," Julie Butner, President and Chief Executive Officer of TAFB, said in a news release. Donors can purchase a box for a family, or multiple boxes for multiple families, by filling out a donation form at www.tafb.org/empty-bowls.
