Imagine this: on October 4th, thousands of people across the region getting together in small groups, over a meal, to talk about what we can do to ensure southeast Michigan is a place where young people can grow and thrive. Then imagine those conversations sparking new ideas that improve our quality of life and that of the communities we call home. That’s what On the Table is all about. On the Table is a new project supported by the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan and the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. We like to say that making southeast Michigan a better place for the next generation isn’t a one-person job. On the Table is our invitation to everyone across the region to pull up a chair and join the discussion. Anyone can host an On the Table conversation. Join us! www.OnTheTable.CFSEM.org

The Community Foundation is inviting organizations, businesses, and individuals to participate in a community engagement initiative called On the Table. For one day, on Wednesday, October 4, On the Table participants will gather in small groups across southeast Michigan, over food, to discuss their ideas for making sure young people can thrive in all our region.
