Helping Neighbors.

Catonsville Emergency Assistance’s mission is to provide neighbors in need in the Greater Catonsville area with emergency food, eviction prevention, utility assistance and service referrals.

to members of the Greater Catonsville community
to make our work possible

Over the past few months, we’ve seen a rising need for food assistance in our community. Thankfully, we’ve been able to respond because of your support. As you watch this video from our Executive Director Caitlin Kirby, please consider making a donation to CEA.
Thank you for being part of the CEA family this past year. As the year draws to a close, we are filled with gratitude for your support. Your generosity allows us to make a difference in our community, including offering first-time events like our Holiday Market.
Time is almost up to make a donation in this tax year, but each charitable gift to CEA will support our mission: Neighbors Helping Neighbors
Wishing everyone a safe and happy new year!

We are thrilled for this community partnership that ensures that students have the food that they need as they head into the weekend and holiday season. And, we are always grateful for the CHS Students Sharing Coalition, who also volunteers at our pantry, weekly.
