Howard County Food Bank

At the Howard County Food Bank in Elkridge, MD, we are dedicated to providing immediate food assistance to families and individuals in need. Our family-choice shopping model creates a supportive and welcoming environment, allowing clients to select their own groceries as they would in a store. We offer a diverse range of fresh produce, dairy items, frozen meats, baked goods, and shelf-stable foods, alongside essential health and hygiene products such as feminine hygiene items, diapers, and baby formula. Our services extend beyond emergency food provisions, as we also assist individuals in applying for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and we connect families to vital resources in housing, energy support, and early childhood education programs like Head Start and Prekindergarten. We believe that everyone deserves access to nutritious food and essential services, and we invite you to visit us twice a month to take part in our offerings.
