Empty Bowls: Fundraiser for Homeless Services
Sunday, April 27, 2025
Sundaes on a Sunday
Rengstorff Park, Mountain View
Back by popular demand, CSA hosts our annual Homeless Services fundraiser as an ice cream sundae party in the park for the fourth year in a row. Empty Bowls, traditionally a soup supper, became Sundaes on a Sunday to accommodate an outdoor take on the worldwide phenomena pairing potters to fundraise for organizations serving the homeless. Featuring bottomless ice cream, beautiful bowls, and fun children’s activities, this year’s event takes place on Sunday, April 27th from 2-4pm in Rengstorff Park.
With thanks to Baskin Robbins for the delicious ice cream and OVCAG for the beautiful bowls.
Empty Bowls will be at the BBQ Area of the park on Crisanto Ave. Parking may be limited – consider biking or taking the Mountain View Community Shuttle. Overflow parking is available at the Mountain View Senior Center.
Radio Interview with Development Director Simone Berkowitz on Empty Bowls, on Stanford’s KZSU show “The Second Arrangement” with host Holden Orias.
