Our mission is to lead the movement and nurture the belief that together we can improve the lives of Marylanders by ending hunger. The Maryland Food Bank is a nonprofit hunger-relief organization at the forefront of the movement to end hunger throughout Maryland. For more than 40 years, we have partnered with communities across the state to distribute food to individuals and families in need. Through carefully crafted programs, the food bank aims to meet the immediate needs of Marylanders while simultaneously working to find long-term ways to reduce hunger statewide. We operate from three facilities in Baltimore, Salisbury, and Hagerstown. Through our extensive network of soup kitchens, pantries, and schools, our branches distribute food throughout 21 counties and Baltimore City, including Somerset, Wicomico, and Washington counties—some of the most food-insecure regions in Maryland.

😄 Our AMAZING volunteers were all smiles as they packed more than 10,000 holiday meals for families in need at last Friday's #PackToGiveBack! #MarylandFoodBank #EndHunger
Yesterday, 200 volunteers from Oshkosh Corporation gathered to pack 26,000 POUNDS of pasta at their Feed the Body Feed the Soul event, benefiting the Maryland Food Bank. Thank you, volunteers! This support is absolutely critical to our mission. 💛 #MarylandFoodBank #EndHunger
All across the state, conversations between partners and our Regional Program Directors are continuing to improve food distribution – bringing a much more dignified and rewarding experience—like Neighbor Choice Pantries—to our hungry neigbors. 🛒 Read our new blog post to hear how two of our network partners are making neighbor choice the norm at their pantries. https://bit.ly/3CiEna8 #MarylandFoodBank #EndHunger #FoodPantry #Blog

Our latest blog post shares more on our partnership with the Harriet Lane Clinic at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center (HCC), and how we worked together to create Maryland's first pantry in a hospital setting back in 2019.
