I went on a “blind [friend] date” with a woman who found me through TheTable (its directory). She was awesome!

[TheTable is] definitely doing a lot to help bring people together! Thank you for all the effort!
Bonnie
Thanks for all that you do in supporting and providing the platform for women in the Triangle. I’ve met some great ladies.
Margot
Being new to Raleigh, I was saying to a friend on the phone one day how I really hoped I could meet some people soon. It was either later that day or the next day that an Instagram ad popped up for TheTable. I have enjoyed every event I’ve been to and met wonderful women! I’m very grateful that I learned about TheTable!
Amy
TheTableRDU has helped me to connect to other women and share in experiences that I would not have done on my own.
