Sponsorship Package

In 2025, the Empty Bowls Celebrity Auction raised over $1.4 million!

If you attended last year, you experienced firsthand the extraordinary lineup of live and online auction items — more than 150 exceptional lots designed to capture everyone’s attention. From bidding on iconic celebrity bowls from stars like Dolly Parton, to scoring Jets games from the best seats in the house, round-trip flights anywhere in the world, and unforgettable fine dining experiences both in private homes and beloved local restaurants. There truly was something to excite every guest, both in the room and across the province.

And the impact didn’t end there. Thanks to our incredibly generous supporters of the Fund the Need initiatives, we were able to fill bellies, nourish souls, and strengthen communities across Manitoba. Because of donors like you, we continue to live our commitment that it takes a province to feed a province. Together, let’s keep working to ensure that no Manitoban goes hungry.
