Chestnut Hill College, in partnership with the Northwest Philadelphia Interfaith Hospitality Network (NPIHN), will host the 13th Annual Empty Bowl Dinner on Thursday, November 17, 2011 from 4:30-8:30 p.m. in Sorgenti Arena. Sponsors for this year’s dinner are PNC Bank and Elfant Wissahickon Realtors. For a small fee, diners can select a hand-crafted bowl and enjoy fare from over 40 restaurants and bakeries in the Philadelphia area. At the end of the evening, diners take home their empty bowl as a reminder of those who face hunger every day. All proceeds benefit the Philadelphia Interfaith Hospitality Network (NPIHN), a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide food and shelter to local homeless families. Tickets are $15 for adults, $6 for students and children, and can be purchased in advance or at the door. For additional information, please call the Philadelphia Hospitality Network at 215-247-4663.
