Relationships with Maryland partners like Glen Arm-based dairy producer Bellevale Farms help us continue feeding people, strengthening communities, and ending hunger for more Marylanders.
Since 2015, the Black Yield Institute (BYI) has been working to change the narrative on black land ownership and food sovereignty in Maryland. The Maryland Food Bank is proud to partner with BYI to help chip away at the systems and policies that have historically affected communities of color, creating a more equitable food system in our state.
Even though 1 in 3 Marylanders face hunger on any given day, food insecurity just hits harder at the holidays. Up to two million of us don’t know where our next meal is going to come from, but Maryland Food Bank Network Partners like Loaves & Fishes go the extra mile to make sure that neighbors don’t feel like numbers—every day, but especially at the holidays.
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.
Hosted by established community organizations where children feel comfortable and safe, our Summer and Supper Clubs ensure that kids can be kids in the late afternoons during the school year and over the summer.
