About Us

Empty Bowls McKinney is a nonprofit outreach dedicated to fighting hunger through the power of art, food, and community. Each year, local artisans, chefs, volunteers, and sponsors come together to host an inspiring event where guests select handcrafted bowls, enjoy gourmet soups, and support local hunger relief organizations. Every bowl serves as a reminder of those who face food insecurity, while every ticket, sponsorship, and donation directly benefits Community Lifeline Center, Community Garden Kitchen, and The Little Free Pantry of McKinney. Through creativity and compassion, Empty Bowls McKinney transforms a simple meal into a lasting impact for neighbors in need.
