The annual Bowls for Beds Fundraiser has returned.
It is for Home Horizon and The Barbara Weider House, while raising awareness about youth homelessness in our community.
It will be a a two-part event: with bowls from our young artists, and one-of-a-kind hand painted bowls by local professional artists.
Kids Bowls– Local elementary school children have been busy painting the handmade pottery bowls (made by local potter, Sandra Saunders) and learning about homelessness in our community. With a minimum donation of $75 you will receive a beautiful bowl painted by one of these amazing students and a Pom Pom’s voucher for a free scoop of ice cream (plus a partial tax receipt). Bowls will be available to purchase until June 18th, and can be picked up in person on June 19th between 10am-2pm at The Curly Willow Restaurant, in Collingwood. If you are unavailable to pick up your bowl, please let us know and we will arrange for delivery.
Artists Bowls– On June 13th we’ll be kicking off an auction platform where we will auction off 26, one-of-a-kind bowls, hand-painted by local artists. Bids will start at $100 and will close on Friday, June 17th at 4pm. We can’t wait to show off the artistic talent of some of our amazing local artists who have each hand painted their own signature bowl.
Last year, Home Horizon raised approximately $30,000 and we are hoping to get close to that same goal this year.
