October Newsletter

Friends of Table Raleigh,

You are the core reason why we’ve reached this point. You share our belief that all deserve a place to belong and to be nourished by both good food (nah,  it will be great food) and welcoming community - to be a part of something bigger!

We are so close to opening our doors, and we need to let everyone know that Raleigh’s pay-what-you-can cafe is here and that they all have a place at our table!   We are also interested in promoting a series of Happy Hours at Vita Vite (313 W Hargett St) directly across from the NEW Cafe location at 300 W. Hargett St. to get to know us and let us tell them all about our cafe.  The November Happy Hours are scheduled for 5:30-6:30 pm on Thursday, November 2, Tuesday, November 7, and Wednesday, November 15.  

Can you help spread the word?  

We are interested in connecting with everyone, and also reaching people who live, worship, or work downtown.   If you know anyone who “checks one of these boxes” and who could possibly be a Café customer, then we want to make it easy for you to tell them our story and also to invite them to the Vita Vite Happy Hours.   You may use or modify the email copy below.  We also have other links to help you publicize this below.  

Have other marketing thoughts?  We’d love your ideas!   Please email us at marketing@tableraleigh.org

Thank you so much for being a part of this amazing journey with us!!  We are forever grateful for your support!!  

Peace to all of you,
Table Raleigh Team

Dear (Name),

I have been aware of a (insert an adjective that expresses how YOU feel--wonderful, innovate, caring, cool, unique...) non-profit called A Place at the Table, and their mission is simple - to provide a place for community and healthy food for all regardless of means.  They are close to opening a pay-what-you-can cafe at 300 W Hargett St this year. To help people understand more about their cafe, they are holding informational Happy Hours from 5:30 - 6:30 pm on Thursday, November 2, Tuesday November 7, and Wednesday, November 15,  at Vita Vite - a , beautiful wine bar & art gallery right across the street at 313 W. Hargett St. Please come enjoy the free food and community at one of these events, and purchase a drink to support their cafe!

I thought given you work/live/worship (choose one or more) near all this, you'd have some interest.   You can also learn more at our website and social media sites...
