Help Give Holiday Meals
The holidays are coming, and we are seeing a 100% increase in requests for turkeys, hams, and whole chickens. Last year, we assisted 2,000 households. That number has doubled to over 4,000 requests already this year. Unfortunately, we currently only have resources to support 1,966 of these requests. To ensure our pantries have what they need to help Anne Arundel County families who are struggling, please consider donating fresh or frozen turkeys, hams, and/or chickens, or making a donation to help us purchase food for healthy, joyful holiday meals.
If you are dropping off perishable food donations at our warehouse, please give them directly to our warehouse team so we are able to refrigerate them upon arrival. You may make donations at 120 Marbury Drive in Crownsville, Monday through Friday, from 9:00am until 3:00pm. Please call us for more information on how you can help your neighbors in need this holiday season, 410-923-4255, or make a donation to help us purchase the needed food: www.aafoodbank.org/donate.
