How We Fight Hunger
Now more than ever, we have proven that the food assistance safety net we’ve built over the last six decades can withstand any crisis. Our expertise combined with a statewide network of community partners makes it possible to meet the immediate needs of food-insecure Marylanders while simultaneously working to create pathways out of hunger.
We are dedicated to feeding people, strengthening communities, and ending hunger for more Marylanders. Join us.
