Empty bowls for no empty stomachs [Video]

RAPID CITY, S.D. (KEVN) – A fundraiser that started 17 years ago for the Saloon No. 10′s Deadwood Social Club has grown over the years.

The fundraiser members and volunteers gather locally made pottery bowls from students and artists and sell them for $10 with a choice of soup. The bowls are meant to be taken home as a momentum whether used for soup or something else.

The soup is made from scratch in the Deadwood Social Club’s kitchen and the event is aimed to fight hunger.

Soups that were prepared this year were clam chowder, meatball minestrone, chicken tortilla, coconut curry, and chili.

Typically the event is held around World Food Day and aims to give back to the community by donating all the funds to local food banks.

The food banks that will be given donations this year are the Lord’s Cupboard and the Spearfish Community Food Pantry.
