Join Missouri Southern State University’s (MSSU) Lion Co-Op for their Empty Bowls fundraiser on Wednesday, April 9 from 11:30 to 1:00 pm at the Ron Richard Athletic Center!
This fundraiser will focus on raising money for MSSU’s Groceries to Graduate program, which helps students gain access to fresh groceries by giving them tokens for the Webb City Farmer’s Market and Joplin’s Empire Market.
For $25, each attendee at the Empty Bowls fundraiser will receive a bowl made by students at MSSU’s Department of Art and Design, soup, bread, and a dessert! Extra bowls will be available to purchase for $15 each. See you there!
