Do Good

For more than 53 years, The Common Man family has given priority to being a cornerstone in our communities, both here in New Hampshire and around the globe.

Hurricane Help

Helping Helene

Our fundraiser has ended. Thank you for helping us DO GOOD for hurricane victims. We’ll announce our total raised soon!

Hurricane Helene devastated our neighbors to the south, impacting more than 32 million residents across 10 states. Now Hurricane Milton is bearing down on some of the same areas.

We’re rallying support from New Hampshire to raise funds for two non-profit organizations that are leading the way in providing shelter, food, and water to residents in the affected areas. Please join our Common Man family in sending Hurricane Help from NH.

Visit any Common Man family location to make a donation towards hurricane relief efforts. Funds raised will benefit World Central Kitchen and American Red Cross.

The Common Man family will MATCH your donation 100%, up to a total of $100,000 raised for both charities combined, through October 18.

Thanks for helping us DO GOOD!

How We Do Good 
 
Managers at each location are encouraged to organize fundraisers in support of projects or charities important to the community in which their particular restaurant is located. Enthusiasm and creative ideas for these fundraisers and fund recipients most often comes from the employees of the restaurant involved.
 
Employees are also given the benefit of company-wide Community Service Days, allowing them to volunteer for a charity important to them, and the Common Man family reimburses them for up to two full days of pay.
 
Our mantra to “Do Good” is top of mind daily, and our hospitality family has instilled a “can do” attitude and corporate culture that each location has an obligation to give back.
 

Owner Alex Ray set the tone long ago and he continues to be an example with his willingness to personally get involved, his enthusiasm and energy, and his desire that each event/fund-raiser be a complete success.
