Each year, approximately 46000 lunches and dinners are prepared and served to those in need of a nutritious meal. If you are looking for a way to help this might be the right fit for you! Martha’s Table has helped thousands of people over her 20 year history by offering a safe welcoming space, a place to call home, a place to gain skills, a place to volunteer and meet amazing people.
Meal sponsorships help Martha’s Table deliver much needed services in the community. They offer a way for community organizations/members to come together to work on a common goal: dinner!
Some of the mutual benefits include:
Encouraging Employee Goodwill and Teamwork – goodwill is cultivated when a company demonstrates interest in a cause its employees care about. Martha’s offers many opportunities for employee involvement.
Serving the Community – It’s a proven fact: good feelings are the result of helping others in a meaningful way
Help provide nourishment – Martha’s Table serves an average of 150 meals per day
Different groups interacting – we love that we’re able to provide the space and the platform to bring different groups in the community together who would not otherwise interact and to do so in the pursuit of goals that are community oriented.
You can choose the meal or we can help you with that. If you want to shop for the groceries, we’re happy to help you with planning and quantities etc… You can cook and serve or we can cook and serve or we can combine forces and do it together…the point is, you get to decide. We’re happy to fill in any gaps.
