POSTS STORIES REELS

Lately, we’ve seen more neighbors walking through our doors who need a meal but can’t quite afford the suggested price, and more folks choosing to volunteer in exchange for their food. That’s exactly why Table exists: so no one ever has to choose between eating and belonging.

When you sponsor the cafe, you’re filling that gap. You help cover the true cost of those meals, so our team can keep saying yes, no questions asked.

Whether you sponsor for a day, a week, or a month, you’re keeping the doors open to a space that means so much to so many. And, you’ll get to see the community you’re helping build, in person.

White Bean Chicken Chili topped with guacamole and tortillas, and served with a side salad with house ranch. Warm, hearty, and exactly what we want when the weather starts cooling down. by @tableraleigh

Volunteer Spotlight: Emily Bennett! ❤️

Emily is a longtime Table volunteer who brings so much light and energy wherever she goes. If you’ve had the chance to meet her, chances are you walked away feeling a little happier, a little more encouraged, and ready to take on the day.

It’s volunteers like Emily who make Table feel like Table, and we’re so grateful for the time, joy, and care she brings to our community. Next time you see Emily around the cafe, give her a high five and show her some love.

Thank you for everything you do, Emily. We’re lucky to have you at the Table. by @tableraleigh
