Partner story · Hillcrest Church

How one congregation doubled its food drive.

2.1× more food collected than the year before

Hillcrest used to run a canned-food drive every November. Now members sponsor a pantry shelf all year and cook one Thursday dinner a month.

Our people didn't want to drop off cans. They wanted to know the families. Common Table made that possible.

Why businesses keep coming back.

We've sponsored a lot of causes. Common Table is the one our staff asks to go back to. They show us exactly where every dollar goes.
