| Project Synopsis: Challenge/Opportunity | The Kitchen Table (TKT) opened its doors in summer 2016 as a community cafe, where everyone - regardless of their ability to pay - is welcome to enjoy a fabulous home-cooked meal and volunteer to prepare and serve food to others. The TKT takes pride in its resourcefulness and reliance on the revenue generated and donations and volunteerism from the community and its members. The organization has a minimal paid staff - just two employees and the director who receives a small stipend; they receive no state or federal funding to support their operations. The Kitchen Table is looking to enhance sustainability and growth, and needs your help optimizing their resources. |
