Riverview’s Empty Bowls project to benefit “Stop Hunger Now!” was a huge success. This year, with tremendous support from parents and the community, Riverview Charter School raised $9,200 at the Empty Bowls Event and Silent Auction, all to benefit “Stop Hunger Now!” With this money, Riverview’s students, parents, and volunteers from across the community purchased and packaged 30,786 meals in just over four hours. These meals will now be delivered to an orphanage in Honduras as part of a global initiative to “Stop Hunger Now!”
