The pandemic is no match for the drive and determination of our donors. Individuals and families of all ages and walks of life have stepped up in a major way, doing what they can to help keep Marylanders fed during this difficult time.
In preparation for the Thanksgiving holiday, Baltimore Area Community Health Services (BACHS) Healthcare, located in West Baltimore City, reached out to MFB in hopes of supplementing their mental health services with food assistance for their clients in need. The partnership resulted in successful food distribution events that brought joy and hope into the lives of food-insecure families, just in time for the holidays.
Every holiday season, MFB distributes special meal boxes complete with traditional holiday fixings and paired with a turkey to food-insecure families in need. This year as the pandemic makes it harder for more families to thrive and secure food, these holiday boxes are even more meaningful as they help bring some normalcy to an unprecedented year.
We know the need for food assistance will remain high and therefore, so will the food bank’s need for philanthropic support. We’ve compiled a list of creative ways you can continue to support our mission as we approach the holiday season.
To hungry Marylanders living in southwest Baltimore, longtime Maryland Food Bank partner Paul’s Place is a beacon of hope in a challenging world.
