About Us

The Healing Table Project, founded by Laurel Morris in the summer of 2025, is dedicated to providing joy and distraction to kids and teens going through difficult circumstances. To do this, we facilitate interactions between those we serve and our teen volunteers, and we teach fun recipes to cook and bake.

We are an entirely youth-led nonprofit; our board and volunteer team are entirely comprised of high school students.

By having our events led by teens, not only do those we serve get to learn to cook and bake new things, but they also provide a kind, inclusive, and safe space for those we serve to talk to our volunteers, some of whom have gone through the same experiences.
