Dinner of Firsts
This seventh annual dinner event will honor local community leader David Wade. In addition to being a first generation college student, David is a Chattanooga State graduate and the President & CEO of EPB of Chattanooga. Proceeds from the event fund scholarships for first-generation students and are divided equally between the annual First in the Family Scholarship and the Tom Edd Wilson First in the Family Endowed Scholarship.
Nearly half of our students that apply for financial aid are the first in their families to attend college. Earnings from the first six years have provided more than $340,000 in scholarship support for first-generation students.
Great news! Dinner of Firsts on November 29, is SOLD OUT. But you still have an opportunity to honor David Wade and provide scholarships for first generation college students by making a gift online to the Tom Edd Wilson First in the Family Scholarship at http://give.chattanoogastate.edu .

Gratefull Chattanooga (formerly known as 1 Table)
Gratefull is Causeway's annual city-wide Thanksgiving potluck. Every year on the Monday before Thanksgiving, we shut down a block on MLK Boulevard for Chattanoogans to come together and share a meal in the middle of the street at one long table. There is no fee, no expectations, and no agenda—just an open invitation.
November 19
11 am - 1:30 pm
200 Block of MLK Blvd.
Details:
After five years of bringing together neighbors from across social boundaries for a shared meal, we are growing. In order to be able to share the love and expand to other cities, One Table is now Gratefull! You can read more about the why behind that transition at gratefull.org.
Locally, everything remains the same. Save the date and join Causeway on Monday, November 19th for a city-wide Thanksgiving potluck from 11:30 - 1:30 in the middle of Martin Luther King Boulevard at one long table. There is no fee, no expectations, and no agenda—just an open invitation.
