Manna Food Center

Gaithersburg, MD, US • 50 - 99 Employees
City Government/Municipal Government

Our community can be a place where all people, at all times, have access to good food in welcoming spaces. Through food rescue, collection and distribution, education, and advocacy we work with our community to reach approximately 35,000 hungry people each year--about half of those experiencing food insecurity in Montgomery County, MD. An active participant in the MoCo Food Council and coordinator of the Community Food Rescue network, we embrace cooperation and collaboration in efforts. In addition to sharing food with approximately 3,600 families each month, Manna's innovative Smart Sacks program pairs community partners with elementary schools. The partnerships provide a bag of family-friendly food to 2,800 elementary school children each Friday during the school year at almost 60 elementary schools. Our work would not be possible without the contributions of volunteers, donors, peer agencies, and devoted staff. The service of our two dozen staff is supplemented by the equivalent of 35 full time volunteers, donating thousands of hours in a variety of activities. We seek food, funds, and friends to achieve our vision of a community where everyone is well fed and able to contribute.
