Empowering Baltimore's Children
There are approximately 13,000 children enrolled in Maryland schools who are experiencing homelessness. In Baltimore County alone, 1 in 3 children live in poverty, making access to safe housing and healthy food an everyday struggle.
The Eat to Empower campaign was created to help fight food insecurity in Baltimore by giving more than 2 dozen restaurants and their patrons the opportunity to support the growth and education of our city’s children simply by eating. Beginning in May, restaurants in Baltimore and surrounding areas will sponsor an Eat to Empower event, from which they have pledged to contribute a portion of their sales.
Eager to help? All you have to do is attend restaurants sponsoring an Eat to Empower event, and spread the word!
