About Us
RESTAURANT AND HOSPITALITY WORKERS ARE IN CRISIS.
WE SERVE HOPE.

Big Table is dedicated to help as many restaurant and hospitality workers in crisis as we can – in as many cities as we can. That’s a BIG task. One we certainly can’t do alone. We knew it was time to bring in… the A-Team or the "Advance the Table Team." Your gift today helps bring Big Table care to new cities around the country. Learn more.
WHY DOES BIG TABLE EXIST?
Our industry is full of amazing and gifted people and hires people no other industry will. These hard-working people have significantly increased risk for financial and emotional crisis as compared to other industries. In fact, EVERY one of the ten lowest-paid jobs in the country is in our industry based on 2020 statistics. Yet because hospitality workers are naturally required to keep smiles on their faces, their needs are virtually invisible to the world. Their job is to serve and take care of others – Big Table’s mission is to walk alongside and help take care of them when they need it most.

Big Table exists to see the lives of those working in the restaurant and hospitality industry transformed by building community and caring for those in crisis, transition, or falling through the cracks. In short, Big Table exists to serve hope to everyone in the industry.
Our mission is grounded in the bedrock of our Christian faith. We believe that every human being is of infinite value, created by God for a life of abundance. Sadly, one of the hardest places to work in our country is the restaurant and hospitality industry. We want to change that for everyone in the industry.
We care for all joyfully with no strings attached, regardless of religious beliefs or anything else!
Inspired by Acts 2, Big Table started around a table where all had a seat. We are committed to sharing our resources with those most in need and breaking bread together to form a supportive community of unconditional care.
To both see and meet triage needs and build long-term capacity in lives.
To bring the light of real tangible hope to the darkness in the world through intentional, life-giving love and relationship.
That’s what Jesus did, and it is what He is calling us to do too.
