Empty Bowls Community Soup Supper
Join your neighbors at the Empty Bowls Soup Supper, where you can pick up the bowl you decorated during glazing days and fill it with delicious food prepared by local restaurants.
The purchase of your bowl included a ticket to the soup supper, but even if you didn’t get a chance to decorate a bowl, you can still buy a ticket to enjoy the soup supper here.
Food Drive at Leavenworth Safeway
Heading to Safeway to shop for Easter? Please consider picking up a few things for the Community Cupboard during our Easter weekend food drive on Saturday, April 19 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Grab some goods from our list of most-needed items and drop them off with volunteers at the front of the store on your way out. All donations will go straight to supporting the Community Cupboard food pantry, making sure local community members have enough to eat.
