One Table Salem

P R E S E N T E D B Y

Imagine if leaders all throughout Salem came together to demonstrate the love and grace of Jesus Christ.

On Saturday, October 4, 2025, Union Gospel Mission of Salem, alongside various community partners, will join forces to put this vision into action.

But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.” - Luke 14: 13-14

CEOs, politicians, pastors, and community leaders alike will personally serve steak meals to those in need and partake in a communal dining experience. Following the meal, attendees can connect with service providers to access assistance and life-changing support.

Contact our Events Coordinator Rosemary Hosie at rhosie@ugmsalem.org for sponsorship and engagement opportunities.

Organize a Clothing Drive

The two most urgently needed items for our homeless brothers and sisters are coats and socks. Provide crucially needed clothing at One Table by having a clothing drive!

    1. Download and print a Coat Drive Poster to use for your donation collection. You can also request this item be printed by UGM if printing is not available to you by emailing Katie at kdara@ugmsalem.org and picking up your prints at the UGM Men’s Mission.

    2. Run your clothing drive at your church/organization/local hub to collect donations for this year’s One Table.

    3. Drop off your donations directly to the Donation Center during open times. Please, make sure to inform staff that your donation is specifically for One Table. Contact Stan at ssorensen@ugmsalem.org if you need your items picked up by our donation center team.
