Keep Winthrop Warm – Bowls for a Benefit
On February 15th I posted a story about Empty Bowl suppers and not to long after that I received an email from Margy Burns Knight who sent me a link with a related story that was featured on WCSH6. In the town of Winthrop the owner of Winthrop Fuel has established Keep Winthrop Warm which is a fund that has been established to help provide fuel for families in need. Community organizations have come together for an annual supper event.
High School art teacher Mary Dyer’s art students teamed up with 1st graders to make and sell ceramic bowls at the supper calling it Bowls for a Benefit. If all the bowls sold they would make just over $700.00, which was enough to keep 2 families warm this winter. You can watch the news clip with the story by clicking here.
