The Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP)

CFSP aims to improve the health and wellness of low-income residents, who are 60 years of age and above, by supplementing their diets with nutritious vegetables, fruits, grains, and meats from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). Our seniors who are running on a tight income, less family support, and nutrition issues need your help. Help fight food scarcity today by packing a box full of hope.

You can help pack food boxes that will be delivered to Baltimore City/County senior citizens every:

Saturday from 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.

We can accommodate groups on other dates

Even if you can only come in for just an hour or for the entire duration, you pick what time works for you. Every minute helps our seniors get closer to a well-balanced meal. 

Our warehouse is located at 400 East 29th St, Baltimore MD 21218. We provide volunteers with a free, ample, parking lot; a facility that is handicap accessible, and opportunities to make lifelong friends. 

If you have any questions or accommodation help please contact Samantha Bowman
