With our community, for our community,

Our new annual fundraising campaign is part celebration and part fundraiser. We celebrate our first full year back since our relaunch in March 2023, and honor the community who makes Transformation Table possible - from our guests, hosts, chefs, and Tamadas to local partners and sponsors. We wouldn’t exist without them. This campaign is with our community, for our community!

Our goal is to raise $150,000 to support our mission-based programming and organizational sustainability.

Why we need your support now.

We need Transformation Table now more than ever.

We have reached an inflection point within our organization. Without your support, we can’t build upon the impact of our dinners and go deeper and broader to support connections beyond the table and back out into the community. 

Our 2023 impact survey among past dinner guests, hosts and chefs 78% of respondents said that eating a meal from the chef’s country of origin caused them to think differently about that culture. 86% of individuals said that they connected with someone they otherwise would not have because of the dinner. 51% agreed that their Transformation Table experience facilitated collaboration beyond the dinner. 55% agreed that as a result of sharing a meal with strangers shifted their mindset. We want to increase our impact.

Leading up to our 8th anniversary on November 19th and through Giving Season, we are hosting events from alumni gatherings, dinners and bake sales to help us reach our goal of $150,000 to support our mission-based programming and organizational sustainability. With this funding, our goal is to maintain the accessibility of our dinners, host more dinners, expand to other communities, and increase our staff. We can’t survive without these funds. We need your support more than ever.

Let’s celebrate!

As a Friends at the Table recurring donor, you contribute to our mission-driven programs and organization sustainability. Transformation Table has a vision to create a globally connected community that promotes peace, and combats hate around the world – community by community. We cannot do this alone. We need the help of individuals and businesses that believe together we can turn the tide of a growing climate of intolerance, hate and divisive rhetoric. We believe this can be accomplished by inviting individuals from diverse backgrounds and perspectives to pull up a chair and have respectful dialogue and conversation. Please join us!
