Assistance Network

The Assistance Network in Glen Burnie, MD, stands as a vital resource for families facing crisis through compassionate food assistance and community support. Formed by local ministers in response to a rising need for immediate help, our goal is to ensure that individuals receive the vital support they require in a dignified manner, eliminating the need for families to seek aid from multiple sources. We provide emergency food, including non-perishable goods and local grocery store gift cards, to ensure that everyone can access nutritious meals. Our Food Pantry Ministry collects fresh produce and staples from local stores each week, distributing these essentials to community members and delivering to those who are homebound or struggling. Additionally, we offer protections against eviction and assistance with utility disconnections, reflecting our commitment to safeguarding those in most urgent need. Through various initiatives like the Holiday Sharing Program and Angel Tree project, we strive to foster a supportive environment that uplifts every individual in our community. Together, we work towards building a stronger, more resilient Glen Burnie.
