A couple of weeks ago, Andy's mom and dad attended a Sunday afternoon event called the 'Soup Bowl' to benefit the Johnson County Habitat for Humanity chapter. It was held at Scott Hall, where our wedding reception was. Sharon is a volunteer for Habitat and Andy & Larry's landscaping business was a named sponsor of the event. Here's a brief description of the 'Soup Bowl', courtesy of Sharon:
Throughout the year soup bowls are collected from local and out of state potters for the Soup Bowl event. For $20 you can pick a bowl out of thousands, have a volunteer wash it and then eat soup until your heart's content. The soup is donated from many of the restaurants in Franklin as well as Indianapolis and surrounding areas. This year we had 12 different soups, along with a few Chef’s, there was also bread, desserts and a beverage and everything was donated. I was one of 60 volunteers, we served around 500 people it’s a huge event. We collected many items from vendors and potters for the silent auction. The money raised is to help build houses for the unfortunate, because everyone should have a HOME. --
Lo and behold, look who showed up in the Indianapolis Star!
