Elementary Schools Holds Empty Bowls Fundraiser

Leary Elementary School teacher Laurie Schenfelt, student Chris Ciesielka and Bill Clark, Executive Director of Philabundance.

Alta S. Leary Elementary School in Warminster, PA raised over $3,000 for Philabundance through their Empty Bowls fundraiser on March 28th. Every child, from kindergarten to fifth grade, made a ceramic bowl for the dinner. Guests chose a bowl to use that day and to keep as a reminder that there are always Empty Bowls in the world. In exchange for a meal and the bowl, the guests gave a suggested minimum donation of 12 dollars. The children of Leary Elementary now understand that one little person can make a tremendous difference!
