The Big Table

Mission Statement

Restaurant and hospitality workers statistically include the highest concentration of those most vulnerable in our community, many with little or no safety net. 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.

The Branch of Nashville

Mission Statement

Our mission is to build a community where everyone can thrive.

The Branch of Nashville helps culturally diverse, under-resourced families in Southeast Nashville work toward self-sufficiency through food support, English language education, and referrals. Through community partnerships, we overcome socioeconomic, religious, political, and cultural divisions to assist neighbors in need.

Whether we are teaching English as a second language, cooking meals to feed volunteers, or stocking our food pantry shelves, everyone is treated with dignity and respect. Our community gives people what they need to thrive spiritually, emotionally, and materially.
