As a staple event of the community since 2019, Empty Glasses welcomes socially-conscious South Bay residents and local civic and non-profit leaders to connect over wine and inspire collective action.
In addition to wine tasting, the event will feature speakers and a silent auction, with items graciously provided by our generous in-kind sponsors.

- Online Wine Sales: Want to support CSA but can’t attend? Portola Vineyards will donate 30% of their online wine sale revenue to CSA. Please visit their online store and enter CSA24 at checkout! Wines are available to be shipped to your home, collected during Empty Glasses, or picked up from the winery at a separate time.
- Donate: If you wish to support CSA but don’t partake in wine, we encourage you to make a donation to CSA. Please be sure to note “YP” in “Name of Tribute” so that your donation is acknowledged under YP’s campaign!

Empty Bowls: Fundraiser for Homeless Services
Sunday, April 28, 2024
Sundaes on a Sunday
Rengstorff Park, Mountain View
Back by popular demand, CSA hosts our annual Homeless Services fundraiser as an ice cream sundae party in the park for the third year in a row. Empty Bowls, traditionally a soup supper, became Sundaes on a Sunday to accommodate an outdoor take on the worldwide phenomena pairing potters to fundraise for organizations serving the homeless. Featuring bottomless ice cream, beautiful bowls, and fun children’s activities, this year’s event takes place on Sunday, April 28th from 2-4pm in Rengstorff Park.
With thanks to Baskin Robbins for the delicious ice cream and OVCAG for the beautiful bowls.
Empty Bowls will be at the BBQ Area of the park on Crisanto Ave. Parking may be limited – consider biking or taking the Mountain View Community Shuttle. Overflow parking is available at the Mountain View Senior Center.
