Tickets now on sale for All Faiths Food Bank’s Bowls of Hope fundraiser

October 14, 2022 by Post

All Faiths Food Bank presents its Bowls of Hope event at Ed Smith Stadium on November 13

SARASOTA, FL – After two years off due to the pandemic, All Faiths Food Bank is thrilled to announce the return of one of its most popular – and one of the area’s best-attended – events: Bowls of Hope. This family-friendly event supports All Faiths Food Bank’s work, benefiting our neighbors experiencing hunger.

In previous years, more than 1,500 guests have attended Bowls of Hope, during which 40 of the community’s finest restaurants and caterers serve delicious soups, bread, desserts, and more. Guests select beautiful, handcrafted bowls – all donated by local potters, artists, and students – to keep, while enjoying a modest meal as a reminder of the empty bowls they help to fill.

This year’s event, chaired by Patti Wertheimer, will feature a new, expanded layout for guests to enjoy. Lead sponsors include Ron and Jo Jadin, Linda Monda, and Al Pezzillo.

“We look forward to gathering as a community, once again, during what has become one of our signature events,” said All Faiths Food Bank’s CEO Sandra Frank. “With already challenging economic conditions – and now the impacts of Hurricane Ian affecting area residents as well as thousands in South Florida – the community’s support is needed now more than ever.”

Takes place Sunday, November 13, 2022, 11 a.m.-2 p.m. at Ed Smith Stadium (2700 12th St., Sarasota). Tickets start at $35 and are now on sale; sponsorships are available through allfaithsfoodbank.org.

To learn more, contact Becky Wright: bwright@allfaithsfoodbank.org or 941-549-8131.
