During the summer months, children are more likely to experience food insecurity. With continued uncertainty about the high cost of goods, the job market, and the overall economy, this summer has the potential to be especially challenging for Maryland families. Find out how our innovative solutions are helping them find relief.
Giant Food is deepening its commitment to fighting childhood hunger with a generous $300,000 donation to the Maryland Food Bank’s School Pantry Program.
Once a student, and now the school pantry coordinator, Miss Helen and her team at Belmont Elementary School provide nutritious food, wraparound services, and more in a caring, stigma-free environment.
Belmont Elementary School hosts a powerful school pantry, where a team of experienced and passionate people work closely with food insecure families, offering access to nutritious foods, and critical wraparound services that can help eliminate the root causes of hunger.
We hear regular stories about how families are fighting child hunger, trying to get good, nutritious food for their children. Beyond anecdotes, those stories are supported by data sourced by our Learning, Measurement & Evaluation team that help us understand the broad impacts of childhood hunger and craft more impactful solutions.
