Table Talk Ministries and Bill Hutson
Started by Bill in 2002, Table Talk Ministries, a 501c3 public charity, has helped over 200 folks get
their houses back up to a livable standard. Folks helped include the
elderly, disabled and the disadvantaged for one reason or
another.
Bill's efforts to help has been a
blessing to many people including the truckers needing a helping hand when tough times hit them as they were fighting to get back on their
feet.
He estimates since 2002 they
have spent somewhere between $250K and $300,000.00 making
repairs for people needing
help. Much of the money used has been his own personal money combined with
donations.
Donations are allocated 100% into
the projects as Bill pays all the overhead
and he also make
up the difference after those donations have been used up on
projects.
Some examples of how Bill has helped truckers include completing a
bathroom/utility room rebuild, replacing a roof and a kitchen renovation.
How Bill has managed to do repairs to over 200
homes while performing his trucking job at Showtime Concession Supply is
hard to imagine but he makes it happen in between runs from Pennsylvania to Idaho and Michigan to
Tennessee.
Table Talk Ministries mainly works in Indiana.
However, Bill's past clients include folks in twelve other states after reading their emails submitted to his website asking for
help.
Bill and Table Talk Ministries treat everybody the same and requires everybody seeking help to provide the same
specific information when requesting
help. You can review the requested information here.
We asked Bill how can people in the trucking industry help him and
the Table Talk
Ministries to do the Lord's work at this time in March 2013.
Bill responded with the following information.
- Table Talk Ministries is in need of
a better truck to make the
scheduled home repairs. Bill is looking for one
now; he has already worn out two trucks in the past ten years. (Keep in mind
a truck in good condition
donated to a 501c3 public
charity can be a nice tax deduction instead of taking the low
offer from a car dealer. Of course, check with your
accountant.)
- There is only one small bathroom project lined up for the remainder
of March but there is already $55K in work lined for 2013 with $11,000 lined up in possible
grants.
- While extremely happy that donations of building materials has filled 3
sheds and a barn, Table Talk Ministries feels at this time
the best tool needed to help with their mission to help people with
their homes is cash donations.
However, Bill is still interested in discussing with you about any possible building material
donations that you may wish to make to the ministry. He has to be selective at this time to avoid the
expense of building another storage shed.
