Need more reason to enter our design challenge<\/a>?\u00a0 Gain inspiration from the women who make the Plates with Purpose\u2122\u00a0and will be etching (your?) winning design onto a new plate to benefit City Harvest!<\/p>\n

Cassandra said, \u201cOur Plates With Purpose\u2122 concept was founded by Mary Irwin-Scott,\u201d one of the co-founders of Riverside Design Group.\u00a0 \u201cWe were looking for a way to strengthen and support our community.\u00a0 Beginning with a single design in 2004, the collection has grown to several beautiful designs that raise funding for a diverse group of national and regional non-profits.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is the first time Riverside Design Group has done a contest for its plate designs.\u00a0 Cassandra is excited to view the submissions and said, \u201cThis could be the start to a whole new wave of plates!\u00a0 It is also really gratifying to see the outreach of Plates With Purpose\u2122 growing to new partnerships.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cassandra encourages artists and designers to \u201cBe bold!\u201d\u00a0 She says, \u201cI think the most graphic designs tend to be the most eye-catching and will serve to represent the impact City Harvest is making in the community.\u00a0 I also think designs are most compelling when they tell a story …\u00a0 so if there is a reason you are choosing a certain motif let us know.\u201d<\/p>\n

Plates With Purpose\u2122 has brought together artists, non-profit partners, and customers together because, \u201cPeople love the designs and the way the missions of the organizations are captured in the graphic artwork,\u201d said Cassandra.\u00a0 UncommonGoods\u2019 partnership with City Harvest serves as an especially meaningful opportunity to put food on more plates of the hungry in New York City.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
