Newton, NC – The Corner Table invites you to nominate individuals who demonstrate leadership, philanthropy, and a strong commitment to making a difference in their community for their Societies: The Baker’s Dozen, The JR Baker’s Dozen, and the Dudez Dozen. These societies help raise both funds and awareness for their feeding programs, and they are excited to recognize individuals who embody the values listed above.

The individuals you nominate do not have to be current supporters of their mission to feed hungry individuals in our community through three main feeding programs: Backpack Program, Community Kitchen, and Frozen Meals. Instead, they are looking for individuals who have shown exceptional dedication to leadership and philanthropy, whether through volunteer work, community involvement, or other impactful efforts. These are people who inspire others and work tirelessly to better the world around them. Do you know someone looking to grow their passion, or get more involved in their community? The Corner Table’s Societies are the perfect opportunity!
