Assistance Network

Assistance Network in Crofton, MD, is dedicated to offering compassionate support to local families in crisis through vital food assistance and emergency services. Established by concerned local ministers, we recognized the urgent need for a more dignified and efficient way to help those in need, eliminating the practice of moving from church to church for assistance. Our food pantry provides a wide range of non-perishable goods and food cards for local grocery stores, ensuring that individuals and families have access to essential nourishment. In addition to food aid, we also offer support for eviction prevention and utility assistance, helping to protect those in precarious living situations. Our dedicated team collects fresh produce and other food items weekly from local grocery stores, which we distribute not just to our visitors, but also to the more vulnerable members of our community, including the sick and homebound. Through initiatives like Warm Nights, Sarah's House, and our Holiday Sharing Program, we strive to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve.
