About the Organization
Historically a ministry of Grace Presbyterian Church, Table of Grace was formed as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization for the purpose of continuing the ministry as a community-based organization dedicated to fighting food insecurity and fostering dignity, stability, and empowerment for individuals and families in need.
Opened in 2023, Table of Grace is the first client-choice, market-style food pantry in West Alabama. We serve nearly 3,000 individuals each month, distributing approximately 35,000 pounds of food sourced from the USDA-accredited West Alabama Food Bank, community donations, and food rescue partnerships. With just one paid staff member, a pantry operations manager, and the support of 90 monthly volunteers, Table of Grace provides vital relief to neighbors in need, while upholding dignity, agency, and respect in every interaction. Our work is essential to thousands of families who depend on reliable, consistent access to food.
We are entering an exciting new chapter of growth and development—building systems, partnerships, and leadership capacity to expand our impact in the community.
In the spirit of togetherness, Table of Grace works to end food insecurity and promote community in West Alabama.
“I was hungry and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger and you welcomed me.” Matthew 25:35 Table of Grace is guided by these beliefs: ○ Feeding people should always involve dignity and human connection. ○ People deserve to have agency over what they eat, when, and how. ○ Together we are stronger: we collaborate with individuals and organizations seeking to amplify their impact in tackling food injustice. ○ Education is a mutual and essential element of expanding food justice work. ○ Community is ever-evolving, inclusive, and expansive. ○ Beauty, peace, and conversation guide our aesthetic and programming.

This role is ideal for a visionary, hands-on leader who thrives in working with a team, building from a blank slate, developing people, and creating long-term organizational capacity.
