With your support we can empower futures together. U Empower of Maryland (UEMD) is a community-based nonprofit resource hub serving Southwest Baltimore.

UEMPOWER of Maryland's "The Food Project" brings culinary skills, job opportunities, sustainable food sources, mentorship & hope to the youth of South West Baltimore. At the UEMD HUB, we identify needs and create solutions by connecting neighbors to wraparound support under one roof—from fresh food access and weekly meal support to benefits navigation, health insurance, housing support, therapy connections, mentorship, workforce readiness, and support for returning citizens. In Southwest Baltimore—where unemployment, low high school completion, and challenges like crime and substance use create serious barriers—The Food Project serves as a vital safety net in the heart of 21223, providing meals and emergency resources while helping individuals and families access the tools they need to move toward stability and opportunity. Through partnership and a welcoming intake process, we guide individuals and families to the resources they need to stabilize, heal, and move forward with dignity. We offer the following services at the UEMD HUB: Food Access, Resources Services & Education. Learn More: www.UEmpowerofMD.org

At the heart of what we do is feed the Community. Each week 600 nutritious meals go out to those in need of a little extra help. This is part of our community based education, hands-on experience, planning, preparing meals, packing, and delivering to take care of our neighbors . The Food Project U Empower of MD

A big thank you to Mason Dixie Foods for donating breakfast sandwiches to The Food Project!

Our kids and families have been enjoying them, and they have been such a blessing to our community. These sandwiches are more than just breakfast — they help us make sure our young people start the day fed, cared for, and supported.

We are so grateful for partners like Mason Dixie who show up with generosity and heart for Baltimore families. Thank you for helping us feed hope and empower our youth!
