Resolving to Help Neighbors in Need

While deciding to join a gym, decluttering your garage, or putting reminders on your calendar to call your Mother more often are admirable New Years resolutions, why not try something a little different this time, and resolve to help your hungry neighbors feel the hope and promise of a new year.

1 in 3 of us will continue to face hunger in 2025, but with your thoughtful support, we can expand the presence of the Maryland Food Bank into more communities, and help more Marylanders thrive.  end story icon
