Even the worst U.S. pandemic in a century can’t stop a worthwhile charity in a good-hearted town.
Empty Bowls will again be filled for the 12th year as the major dual-fundraiser to feed the needy and cultivate culture in New Bern.
Amid the fellowship, homemade soups from local restaurants and a free bowl from the labors of regional potters, it has also raised a lot of money – about $300,000 since 2011.
Religious Community Services and Craven Arts Council, the beneficiaries, have shared $110,000 in just the past two years.
Empty Bowls each February have been one of the area’s most popular social fundraisers, averaging more than 700 attendees a year, with a spike to 923 in 2019 and 880 in 2020 at Tabernacle Church.
I escaped WFH in Battersea for Barbados, and I ve never looked back
After a Covid redundancy, Juliet Fallowfield joined a tribe of digital nomads on the Caribbean island, where the tax-free living is easy

For me, 2020 had one huge positive: it afforded me a newfound freedom. Following redundancy in early April, I left 20 years of PAYE behind to start my own PR consultancy, joining the 3.5% year-on-year increase in registrations at Companies House.
I soon realised that wherever the internet worked, so could I. Unfortunately, my beloved Battersea failed in this regard and when Barbados’s so-called Welcome Stamp visa started coming up in conversation with fellow entrepreneurial types, I noted that the island’s key selling point wasn’t its turquoise seas or expertly cheffed cuisines, but that its internet connection ranked above that of the UK.

The 27th annual Hoosiers Hills Food Bank Soup Bowl Benefit will be held via the online streaming platform Mandolin on Sunday, February 21, at 5:30 p.m.
The event will feature performances from Busman’s Holiday, Sam Bartlett and Eric Schedler, Malcolm Dalglish, Ross Gay, Indiana University Soul Revue, and Carrie Newcomer and Gary Walters, with special appearances by Joshua Bell and Keb’ Mo’.
Leading up to the event, soup bowls will be distributed outside the Courtyard by Marriott hotel next to the Monroe Convention Center on Friday, February 19 and Saturday, February 20. Due to the nature of this year’s event, the bowls will be handed out at random and will not be able to be individually selected as they have been in pre-pandemic years.
