CHAPEL HILL, N.C. –The SECU Foundation has provided a $40,000 grant to TABLE, a non-profit that delivers healthy food and nutrition education to over 800 children each week in Orange County.
The funding will help TABLE expand its services as they work to create a community where all children have equitable access to nutritious food.
“TABLE has been making a difference in the lives of children and families in this area since 2008,” said Allan Phillips, SECU senior vice president, Chapel Hill-Pittsboro Street Branch. “We are inspired by their work to ensure children have access to nutritious food and develop healthy eating habits. SECU Foundation is pleased to support their efforts and help raise greater awareness of their valuable services to address childhood hunger.”
“TABLE is so grateful for the support of SECU Foundation’s Mission Development Grant,” said Laura Dille, TABLE director of operations. “Together, our alliance will help TABLE expand our services in rural parts of Orange County, our capacity to serve Spanish-speaking children and families, and ultimately our impact. Because of SECU Foundation, children in our community will have plenty of food and improved health outcomes. We are thankful for the Foundation’s collabortive efforts with TABLE.”
