On September 12, we deployed our staff to MFB partner sites from the western mountains to the Eastern Shore to show that we all can do more to help end hunger for more Marylanders as part of our first ever “MFB Day of Service.”
Pack to Give Back Local is an annual series of Maryland Food Bank events that bring together community agencies and corporate partners to pack holiday meals in every county the food bank serves, ensuring a joyful holiday season for more than 12,000 Maryland families that might otherwise go without.
The Maryland Food Bank is pleased to support the Weinberg Foundation’s Library Project by providing food to students at participating schools throughout the school year. Hunger affects a child’s ability to focus in school and leads to a host of health problems, all while weakening families and communities. By pooling our resources, we are able to nourish both the physical and intellectual needs of Baltimore’s children.
On Friday, January 20, we celebrated the accomplishments of our 22nd graduating class from our culinary program FoodWorks. Nine graduates received ServSafe certification and job-readiness training. The ceremony was attended by family, friends, program partners and local officials.
On December 12, 2016 the Maryland Food Bank welcomed a new President and CEO, Carmen Del Guercio. We sat down with Carmen to learn more about him.
Check out the latest local and national news about the Maryland Food Bank and how we’re addressing hunger in our communities.
