Our friends @genes_greens provide fresh produce weekly for our neighbors in need! We are grateful for their generosity and for the grant from the Catonsville Men’s Civic Association which helps to fund this fresh produce project.

Thanks to the @mdfoodbank Capacity Grant Program, we were able to hire the talented @curlyreddesign to create an updated and vibrant site that will better reach those in our community who need our services, and will encourage more community support of our mission: 

Neighbors Helping Neighbors

As a small non-profit, with limited funding, we are not always able to provide all the services that our neighbors may need, on-site. But, we always strive to provide those we serve with resources. 

We are thrilled to be able to refer people to the @ycentralmaryland in hopes that these additional services will continue to help support those who are struggling in our Catonsville community and beyond.
