OGT sets out to make sure every child in Foster Care and less privileged homes in the Pacific Northwest has the nutrition needed to thrive at home and school.
DonateThese kids go to bed hungry and not knowing where their next meal will come from. Even when a meal is provided, it is often processed and unhealthy.
Research shows that most children who lack proper nutrition are more likely to get sick. Hunger pains are debilitating and take a toll on mental and physical development, causing them to be less successful in life. This happens far too often in Oregon. We will change that starting here in Portland.
We provide freshly prepared meals made from the best ingredients. OGT will work until every child receives the nourishment they deserve—one community at a time.
The mission of Our Giving Table is to provide wholesome, non-processed food to underprivileged and foster kids in our backyard.
OGT works closely with school administrators and DHS officials to determine need, ensuring weekend meals and assistance during the summer to elementary school aged children.
Though our eventual goal is to eliminate hunger in all children, we will start by distributing at least 500 meals per month to the highest priority elementary schools and DHS offices.
You can donate funds, food, or even your own time to Our Giving Table. Be part of the solution why a child doesn’t go to bed hungry.
OGT can also cater benefit dinners. Please contact us if you are interested in hosting.
