Hunger

Hunger is a constant reality for anyone living in poverty. Many individuals and families must make the impossible choice between paying their rent or buying food. One in eight people in Maryland, and one in four in Baltimore City, are food insecure. Many children in the Baltimore region are hungry when they arrive to school, and many have not eaten a full meal since they left school the day before. Additionally, one in every three children in Baltimore City live in a food desert and don’t receive the healthy foods they need to thrive and succeed. We offer consistent access to nutritious food to men, women, and children throughout the Baltimore region.
