Thank you for joining us in our work to fight against hunger in our community. Community donations of food are one of the main ways we are able to provide emergency food assistance.

CEA relies on donations of non-perishable food as well as household and hygiene products such as toilet paper, toiletries, and paper towels. Donated food cannot be expired. Food can be dropped off at our building during normal business hours, Monday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Please phone (410) 747-4357 for an appointment at other times.

Are you too busy to shop? You can click here to view our Amazon Wish List and have food sent directly to CEA.
