Soup or Socks

Equipped with food pantry and a clothes closet, persons of the greater Marshfield area are provided with supplies at no charge. Each year, the organization raises awareness about hunger in the community with the Marshfield Area Empty Bowls fundraiser. Bringing together art and goodwill, artists and students all over the community create bowls to be purchased as a reminder that there is always someone with an empty bowl.

This powerful message evokes gratitude and keeps the community giving back on a regular basis.
