Bon Appetit & felicitations

Congratulations to all the Milton Transitional Housing team for a spectacular 3rd annual Empty Bowls event yesterday. The bowls get better and better every year and the soups were to die for! Thank you to all the sponsors, volunteers and the many many resident's of Milton who came out to the Milton Centre for the Arts to support those at risk of homlessness in our community. There were some very happy and contented faces leaving with their beautiful hand crafted bowls. There are many pictures of the event on the Milton Transitional Housing Facebook page News will follow shortly as to the amount raised from this great fundraising event.

Empty Bowls 2013 video message

Here is a video message on why I believe the Empty Bowls 2013 at Milton Centre for the Arts on Sunday March 17th is important. Many start up organisations profit or not-for-profit never make it to Year 3. The team now has secured three units towards its goal of 7 by 2016 and this 3rd annual Empty Bowls shows the sustainability of the organisation, passion of its directors and staff and bright future suporting those at risk of homelessness in our Milton community.

Canadian Champion - Fill your tummy

The Milton Canadian Champion continue to support the work and awareness of Milton Transitional Housing with coverage about this Sunday's third annual Empty Bowls event. The previous two events have been a tremendous success in both raising awareness among the local community as well as funds to support the work with those at risk of homelessness. Here is the link to the Inside Halton website. We very much hope to see the resident's of Milton out in force filling their tunmmies with wonderful gourmet soup and leaving with a beautiful bowl. Your picture may appear in the paper, this blog or the website after the event.
