Loaves & Fishes Parish Report for 2016
Without balanced nutrition, individuals and families do not have a strong, healthy foundation to work, go to school, recover from addiction or move up and out of poverty. The St. Matthias Loaves & Fishes feeding mission provides hot meals, groceries and other support for these hungry men, women and children who are homeless, living in shelters, coping with addiction, or just having difficulty making ends meet.
Through a corps of committed volunteers who contribute their time, talents and financial resources, we seek to meet the community’s needs every Saturday—the need is great; we can do more. Today we:
- Serve over 100 hot meals every week through our soup kitchen.
- Operate a food pantry providing bags of groceries to feed more than 100 families and individuals.
- Provide a resource center to obtain clothing, personal hygiene items and other services.
Our goal is to restore hope to individuals and families and foster community within our Northeast Baltimore neighborhood. We:
- Provide an environment where all in need are welcome.
- Offer a safe, warm and engaging sense of community to those who need it.
- Welcome people of many faiths and provide nourishment for both body and soul.
Our vision is to both sustain and grow our feeding mission and resource center so that we can help our neighbors thrive. Partner with us to make a difference.
