As a volunteer, I have observed a very well run and organized facility. I have a little more restored outlook on public services. The overall operation appears to be very busy, with multiple vehicles of all types picking up and delivering much needed resources.
spoke with Carole she was very understanding about a situation which is happening at Westside men's shelter. Very interested in the theft it's going on between the staff and the donations that are being brought in. Can't wait to expose those thieving blue lights for who they really are,
Restores your faith in Humanity. That is what MD Food Bank does, feeding the hungry among us.
Volunteered my time here. Enjoyed working with my fellow employees!!
They're doing the Lord's work but they need money to help with hunger.
The Maryland Food Bank is a well-run organization. Volunteer, make a difference!
I attended a Church event here to help pack food. Great organization to help the needy.
Partner with the food bank to provide groceries to those in need.
Great place and overall organization! Was able to provide some of my time to the Md Food Bank to assist people who need these services. The work environment is very relaxed and the coffee machine in the breakroom is phenomenal lol
Food works graduation was wonderful!!! Keep going strong!
Maryland food bank was 2 weeks late picking up the cans from my school, even after i called multiple times, and i don't expect much, however it'd be nice if they sent an email or phone call saying thanks for donating...
A great place to work! Very community-minded with a drive to end hunger on the Eastern Shore. Call to become a contributor of food, a distributor of food, or a volunteer. A wonderful place to get those Service Learning Hours as well.
My MFB visit was educational and informative in ways of helping other to make better healthy choices of their eating habits and also the relief of hunger in the World. We also received Civil Rights training so that everyone would be treated equal
Maryland food bank is an absolutely amazing place with outstanding staff everyone should go and volunteer at least one time even if just for an hour
Md. Food Bank has blessed my family 3 years ago. Thank you so much for the blessing.
My 16 year old asked me to go online a month ago to get us signed up for a Saturday. Super proud of this kid. He's got such a huge heart.
I love volunteering with the Maryland Food Bank. The culture is welcoming and family-oriented.
Extremely necessary to combat hunger in Maryland. This agency is doing an excellent job!

This is a great place for individuals and groups to volunteer. You can tell how passionate the staff is about their jobs and the organization's mission. There are opportunities for everyone to jump in and help out!
Are they really charging the groups they are helping for the food we give to them for free?

These people do great work and don't get enough credit or attention.
So unprofessional someone I know had a interview and two people had called out and one was in a meeting and they never received a call or email letting them know. Then never called to reschedule
Great worthy missions operation. Had a pallet of fresh produce refused by a distribution center because it was the wrong item. The shipper and my trucking company said donate it if I could find a taker. Thankful to Maryland Food Bank taking this and feeding those needing food.
I m seeing good comments, but my experience today wasn t the best, people at receiving where rude, they don t understand or respect the importance of truckers in this country..
Volunteered here, they are amazing people doing amazing things for Maryland's people. Highly recommend supporting them!
Hard to find, but this place is huge, clean, and very organized
Awesome school and the chefs there are amazing! Really glade i got to attend class 26!!
Person unloading my truck was very professional, pleasant, and helpful
This place does great work - we like volunteering here!
We were picking up an order for Monarch Academy and the staff at the Maryland Food Bank was very helpful but the location was a little tricky to find.
Every time I ve been here they have taken my donations and give me my receipt without any hassle
Had an awesome time giving back with my colleagues.
Great place to volunteer and help out with the community. New building, excellent staff and great way to meet new people and have fun while helping those in need.
Maryland Food Bank: Fighting Hunger and Building Self-Sufficiency
The Maryland Food Bank is a non-profit organization that has been serving the state of Maryland since 1979. Their mission is to diminish the immediate effects of hunger through access to nutritious food, while helping Marylanders build long-term paths to self-sufficiency. The organization operates with a vision of creating a hunger-free Maryland where all residents have access to healthy food.
The Maryland Food Bank works tirelessly towards their goal by partnering with over 1,200 community organizations across the state. These organizations include soup kitchens, food pantries, shelters, and schools that serve low-income families. The organization also runs several programs aimed at providing assistance to those in need.
One such program is the School Pantry Program which provides children from low-income families with nutritious food for weekends and holidays when school meals are not available. This program ensures that children do not go hungry during these times and can focus on their studies without worrying about where their next meal will come from.
Another program run by the Maryland Food Bank is the Mobile Pantry Program which brings fresh produce and other perishable items directly into communities that lack access to healthy foods. This program helps bridge the gap between those who have easy access to healthy foods and those who do not.
In addition to these programs, the Maryland Food Bank also runs a culinary training program called "FoodWorks" which provides job training for individuals looking for employment in the culinary industry. The program offers hands-on experience in cooking techniques as well as job readiness skills such as resume building and interview preparation.
The organization's efforts have not gone unnoticed as they have received numerous awards over the years including recognition from Feeding America for being one of its top-performing members in terms of efficiency and effectiveness.
To support its operations, The Maryland Food Bank relies heavily on donations from individuals, corporations, foundations, government agencies among others. Every dollar donated goes towards providing meals for those in need across all counties within Maryland State.
In conclusion, The Maryland Food Bank plays an essential role in fighting hunger within communities across all counties within Marylands State while also empowering individuals through various programs aimed at building self-sufficiency skills necessary for long-term success. By supporting this non-profit organization through donations or volunteering time or resources you can help make a difference towards creating a hunger-free future for all residents of Marylands State!
