Get ready to participate!  CEA will be part of the global day of giving on Tuesday, Nov. 27.   #GivingTuesday kicks off the charitable season and follows Thanksgiving and the widely recognized shopping events Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday.  #GivingTuesday, is a day for giving back.

This November 27th, join the movement and give – whether it’s some of your time, a donation, or a gift.    And use the power of social media to help us help our neighbors in need.  All funds raised go toward food, utility turn-off prevention, and eviction prevention right here in Greater Catonsville.

In the spirit of striving for continuous, year-round support for our clients, Catonsville Emergency Assistance (CEA) is having its first Christmas in July Food & Funds Drive! Hunger knows no season, and CEA needs your support to ensure we can continue to help our clients all year long.

Starting July 25th to July 31st, donations of food and/or funds may be dropped off to CEA, 25 Bloomsbury Avenue, Catonsville, MD 21228. CEA will be open for donations during the drive from Monday-Friday, 9am-1pm and Saturday 9am-3pm. Bring your individual donation, or organize a group food drive with friends, your neighborhood, or your workplace! The drive will feature a tree lighting on Tuesday, July 23 at 7pm at CEA.
