Feeding those who are hungry in Baltimore
Our Daily Bread is Maryland’s largest hot meal program, serving more than a quarter of a million meals to those experiencing hunger in Baltimore City each year. We serve a nutritious lunch every day of the year and breakfast to seniors and individuals with disabilities each weekday. The Classic Casserole Program at Our Daily Bread is the backbone of this program.
Since June 1, 1981, we have never missed a day of lunch service to those experiencing hunger in Baltimore, in spite of blizzards, hurricanes or any other occurrence.
Our Daily Bread is a place where all are welcome, where people whose lives are burdened by the hardships of the human condition are served with dignity and reverence. We serve with a passion and love for our sisters and brothers as we meet their need for food, resources, direction and the building up of the human spirit.
Every plate comes with a warm welcome and a smile that is always worn by the volunteers who serve.
Contact our volunteer line at 667-600-3438 or [email protected] for information, to find out what we need most, to find a drop off location or arrange a pickup.
