For more than 30 years, Ben has been helping organizations raise awareness and inspire action by creating compelling narratives.

Thank you for packing, flocking, and giving on behalf of your neighbors in need during our three BIG year-end events – Pack to Give Back, the Ravens Food & Funds Drive, and Giving Tuesday!
When Marylanders like Jeni Murphy share their story and tell us what’s really behind the hunger they are experiencing, it illustrates the ripple-effects of a lost resource. These stories give us a glimpse of understanding about deeply a root cause of hunger can affect a family’s day-to-day life.
Choice is an important part of what makes us all feel human. Making choices allow us to feel in control, to let us determine the course of our own lives. That’s why the Maryland Food Bank is working to bring more neighbor choice food pantries, to more communities statewide.
The more places food-insecure Marylanders can access nutritious food, including healthy produce, the better chance our state has to thrive. Find out how our partnership with another long-standing Maryland institution, Johns Hopkins, is helping neighbors in Baltimore.
