Between the VIP Preview Party hosted at Heritage House and the main fundraiser at the Denson Drive Recreation Center, the 2022 Opelika-Auburn Empty Bowls events raised $45,500 for the Food Bank of East Alabama. This was only possible thanks to the generous donations of time, money, food, and auction items from our fabulous volunteers and sponsors. Please join us in thanking everyone who pulled together to make this happen.
