A Place at the Table

For about seven years, we have been providing hot meals, necessities, and clothing to the homeless and those on the margins in downtown Knoxville. Each Monday night, we serve over 200 hot meals, striving to enhance the self-worth and dignity of those we serve. Some of the people we serve are in a temporary crisis. Others have shelter but do not have the resources to purchase food. Many work but are unable to afford housing. Some are chronically homeless. Our goal is to assuage hunger, realizing that by meeting basic human needs, we area also able to provide mental, social, and emotional support to individuals and families.

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization composed entirely of volunteers. Our mission is to uplift homeless people and those on the margins in downtown Knoxville, TN, by meeting basic human needs for food, toiletries, and clothing. We do this with an attitude of respect, extending a warm smile and a listening ear.
