The Royal Table, Inc. story officially began as a response to a local crisis and it has grown into a mission of empowerment and hope.

The seeds of Royal Table Inc. were planted long before we had a name or formal structure. For years, our founders, Mrs. Flarrie Mahamad and her son, Amir Muhamad, dedicated themselves to community service—volunteering with local organizations and hosting Disaster Preparedness workshops to help neighbors protect themselves during emergencies.

Then came 2020, and with it, challenges that would transform our path forever. When devastating tornadoes tore through our city, we witnessed firsthand the profound impact of natural disaster on families—particularly children. Seeing young ones standing in shock amid the ruins of their homes moved us to immediate action. We mobilized quickly, pooling resources to purchase supplies and create care packages for families who had lost everything.

It was during this crisis that inspiration struck. Our founder's son, home from college, proposed a powerful idea: creating a "Safe Place" specifically designed for children affected by trauma and displacement. Just one week later, as the COVID-19 pandemic forced the world into lockdown, this vision began taking shape. With newfound time and urgent purpose, mother and son worked together to build what would become Royal Table Inc.

Today, Royal Table, Inc. stands as a testament to the power of responding to community needs with sustainable solutions. We've expanded beyond emergency response to offer year-round programs that equip young people with tools for lifetime success:

  • STEAM education that ignites curiosity and technical skills
  • Youth Development programs that build character and confidence
  • Financial Literacy workshops that prepare the youth and their families for economic independence
  • Entrepreneurship training that cultivates the next generation of community leaders

While our programming has grown, we've remained true to our roots. Monthly community outreach initiatives that includes homecooked meals for all participants.

At Royal Table Inc., we believe in creating more than temporary relief—we're building pathways to lasting change. We invite like-minded supporters to join us in transforming lives and creating sustainable impact in underserved communities.

Together, we're setting a place at the table for everyone.
