Businesses Get Involved with Third Tuesdays Together

News

UMD is pleased to announce Third Tuesday's Together, a new initiative to encourage and increase involvement from the business community.

The third Tuesday of each month is reserved for local companies to host dinner service in the Community Cafe. Volunteers from the company come together to plan, prepare, serve and share a meal with UMD program participants and guests.

Third Tuesdays Together offers an enriching and rewarding experience that is beneficial for the company, the employees and the entire community. We believe that this type of shared experience creates a win-win, and can have a big impact for all parties involved.

Participating businesses bring a team of 8 to 10 individuals that prepare (or cater) and serve food to about 250 people that evening. Meals usually consist of a protein, vegetable and/or salad, side dish, dessert and beverages.

We look forward to hosting the Greater Durham Chamber of Commerce in August.
