Customer Spotlight: Our Community Table Ministries
Custom products for those who feed the hungry
Rick Cundiff
It’s a simple matter of faith that no one should have to go hungry. That’s the message of Our Community Table, a ministry based in Martin County, Florida. The organization serves more than 3,000 meals every week in Martin, Okeechobee and St. Lucie counties.
This year, Our Community Table marks six years of feeding individuals and families in need, with more than 450,000 meals served to date. They chose TJM to provide custom coins and other products to commemorate the occasion.
“The awards and coins were for our six-year anniversary for a Volunteer Appreciation Dinner,” said founder Greg Waid. “All expectations were met.”
It’s important to note that Our Community Table is an entirely volunteer-run organization. From transport to cooking to serving the meals, the volunteers do it all.
Waid came to know TJM through our owner, Mike Moore. He and Mike met at Waid’s workplace, so when the need for custom products arose, naturally Waid turned to us. In addition to awards and challenge coins, the ministry has ordered custom imprinted shopping bags and drink coasters from us.
“The coasters are to get into restaurants to help raise awareness,” Waid said. “The grocery bags are to help raise awareness, to pass out to our volunteers for their shopping needs.”
All of the products from TJM have met with approval, he noted. “It was great, they were well received,” he said.
While Our Community Table does buy custom products from other companies, they’re currently talking to TJM about switching those products to us if the price is right.
We’re always happy to work with organizations such as Our Community Table.
“It was a genuine pleasure working with Greg and supporting the mission of Our Community Table,” said Matt Fischer, TJM Director of Client Relations. “It’s always rewarding when the work we do helps amplify a mission that’s making a real difference in the community.”
The appreciation goes both ways, Waid said.
“Matt was great to work with – Thank you!”
We appreciate the vote of confidence, Greg. Thank you to you and your dedicated volunteers for your efforts to make life better for people who need a hot meal. We wish Our Community Table continued success, and look forward to serving all your custom product needs in the future.
