volunteering at our new space! The guys packed 200 non-perishable bags, feeding 200 kids this week, along with helping clean up!
Thank you to our volunteers for all of their hard work! This week, we served 415 households and our bags included apples, spring onions, corn, a variety of greens, and fresh bread!
Anticipating storm-related school closures, TABLE will deliver to kids Wednesday 9/12. We will provide fresh produce AND shelf-stable items like granola bars, fruit cups, and peanut butter.

This was our last delivery week of the year! Another 700+ bags were delivered to more than 420 locations! And, kids received TWICE the amount of food to account for the holiday break (20 meals and snacks!). Since the beginning of 2020, TABLE has delivered more than 30,450 bags.
Today, TABLE was one of ten Triangle orgs. granted $40,000 in unrestricted funds from GlaxoSmithKlein. We are very grateful to be a 2019 recipient of the
#GSKImpact
Award and look forward to using these funds to continue serving some of our community’s most vulnerable citizens.
Every week TABLE delivers emergency food to children in our community who typically receive subsidized meals through their schools. This food helps children over the weekends and holidays when they may not otherwise have access to the healthy food they need.
Thank you to the nearly 500 neighbors + friends who joined us at Empty Bowls to raise money to feed local kids!! Thx
@WeaverStreet
for hosting!

Kids will be virtually learning through January, which means they won’t be receiving meals at school and will need access to nutritious food at home. Thanks to our volunteers and donors, TABLE will be able to continue delivering food to our kids’ doorsteps 3 days a week!
Do you know how many kids qualify for free and reduced lunch here in Chapel Hill and Carrboro?
3 out of every 10 kids.
If you know any kids experiencing food scarcity, let us know, we can help!

What did it look at like
@TABLENC
last week?
3,000 lbs of non-perishables bagged and delivered ✅
1,300 lbs of fresh produce bagged and delivered ✅
446 kids brought home healthy, nutritious food for the weekend ✅
What’s in a bag? Each bag we send out has 10 meals and kid-friendly snacks and a variety of fresh food. This school year, bags are going to 675 kids per week on average through our Weekend Meal Backpack Program.
A key part of our mission is our focus on providing fresh and nutritious food to kids (not just empty calories). This week we are giving out pears, peaches, bell peppers, sweet potatoes, carrots, spring onions, and greens!
Shout out to Michael, one of our volunteer delivery drivers! He brings food directly from TABLE to local schools every week. Thanks for all you do! If you'd like to volunteer with us, please visit
Much of the fresh produce we distribute is sourced from local farms and small community gardens in the area. This week, we have apples, cucumbers, and cauliflower! We are so grateful for these growers and their help in getting nutritious food to kids!
Today, we want to give a shout out to Denali, an extraordinary TABLE volunteer (pictured far right)! 🌟👏🥕

Today, say 👋🏽 to Litsey & Jared! This dynamic brother & sister duo have been making a difference at TABLE since this summer. What brought them to TABLE? Their mama who showed by example the importance of volunteering in their community. We are so glad!
According to a teacher at Rashkis Elementary School whose donated a bag of food every week for 4 yrs.."Each week students eagerly wait for the bag that will feed them over the weekend. Their smile and excitement says it all!"👊💖 our teachers!
