Thank you!!

We are a grassroots non-profit trying to keep up with the demand of the growing number of food insecure residents in downtown Hagerstown.

These numbers increase during the summer as kids and teens are out of school and may not be able to physically get to other programs. We are central and essential to making sure they don't go hungry.

Our success comes from the support of our Hub City community members like you. You CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

If you would like a Birthday Kit for a adult and or child pick up is this week Tues,Weds,Thurs 10:30am-12:45pm.

Contact Mama Dee with any questions

Thank you to the additional community members who donated Birthday Kits so we can continue this Fun Program ❤️🎂🎊🎉

We have a fun temporary program that we are starting due to the amazing generosity of a community member. ❤

We had a community member reached out to us and in lieu of her birthday her and her grandchildren put together birthday🎂 kits that includes a cake pan,cake mix, icing and everything you need to have your own birthday cake.

We would like to have this fun temporary program be for any families who has a child or children with a current birthday and or if you are an adult and you have a birthday you can contact us and we will give you a cake. So for example, if your birthday is coming up or you have a child’s birthday coming up and you would like one of these birthday kits you can contact Mama D and set up an arrangement to come pick up a birthday cake kit.

We would love to spread the blessings around to as many people as we can. I believe we have about 30 kits. I kindly asked that if you have multiple children, whose birthdays are very close together that you only ask for one kit. We will not be giving any kits in advance. It has to be within that birthday week.

This is a wonderful blessing that this community member has done and so we asked for everyone to please be honest.

Please feel free to message Mama Dee on the FB page or Call 301-302-9815 or 240-452-9786
