Below are just a few of the charitable community organizations that help out those in need in the Baltimore area, including providing Thanksgiving meals.
There are many food banks and pantries throughout the Baltimore area. Most of these pantries are served by local organizations such as the Maryland Food Bank or local church groups.
The Maryland Food Bank , a non-profit organization, has been helping lead the movement to end hunger in Maryland for more than 35 years. The Maryland Food Bank distributes over 100,000 meals per day, nearly 37 million meals annually. The Maryland Food Bank has 3 facilities: Baltimore, Salisbury and Hagerstown. Food is distributed to soup kitchens, food pantries and schools in 21 counties in Maryland, including Baltimore City and Somerset, Wicomico, and Washington counties. The Maryland Food Bank has many programs for helping hunger in the community including school breakfast and lunch programs, culinary training, farm to food programs and SNAP programs. Donations can be made to the Maryland Food Bank this holiday season in several ways including their virtual holiday food drive at www.mdfoodbank.org/donate.
The Door is part of the Baltimore Urban Leadership Foundation with a mission to “facilitate the transformation and holistic growth of youth, families and communities through collaborative partnerships, direct service and resource development.” The Door operates a food pantry throughout the year with help from the Maryland Food Bank and Clearview Baptist Church. The program provides more than 5,000 food baskets a year with non-perishable items, bread and fresh meat, to families in need. The program is always in need of volunteers and food donations.
