Baltimore Ravens Family Food & Funds Drive

Web Headers - Community__Feed the Flock

The Baltimore Ravens announced the launch of their annual #FeedTheFlock food collection efforts, in partnership with Safeway and the Maryland Food Bank (MFB). Over the past 30 years, the Ravens have supported the food bank as the largest charitable food assistance provider in Maryland.

This partnership comes during a critical time, with the holidays approaching and one in three Marylanders facing food insecurity—over 2 million people in our state. The Baltimore Ravens, Safeway, and MFB call on everyday heroes across the state to step up and support their neighbors in need.

Detailed below are a variety of ways fans can support the cause!

Sunday, Dec. 7

Gameday Collection

Collection efforts will be enhanced with the 30th Annual Ravens Family Food & Funds Drive, sponsored by Safeway, when the Ravens host the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, Dec. 7 at M&T Bank Stadium. Prior to kickoff (11 a.m. – 1 p.m.), MFB volunteers will collect monetary and non-perishable food donations outside all M&T Bank Stadium gate entrances. MFB will also be on RavensWalk collecting credit and debit card donations. The final poundage collected will be distributed through the food bank's statewide network of community partners. The 30th Annual Ravens Family Food & Funds Drive is also supported by Von Paris Moving & Storage, which will transport all collected items from the stadium to the MFB.

Maryland Food Bank (MFB) Fast Facts:

  • The Maryland Food Bank is a nonprofit hunger-relief organization dedicated to feeding people, strengthening communities, and ending hunger for more Marylanders. 
  • For more than 45 years, MFB has been leading the fight against hunger in the state, and longtime collaborative partnerships with organizations like the Baltimore Ravens have been instrumental to this work.
  • MFB estimates that up to 2 million Marylanders may face food insecurity this year–that's 1 in 3 residents who don't have regular access to healthy meals.
  • The food bank supports a network of nearly 800 partners — food pantries, emergency shelters, schools, and senior residences — with much-needed food for their local communities.
  • Last year, the food bank's statewide food assistance network distributed more than 43 million meals, the equivalent of 119,000 meals per day. MFB will continue to meet the immediate needs of neighbors while collaborating with partners to provide resources beyond food and address root causes of hunger so that more Marylanders can become financially stable and thrive.
  • MFB is most in need of healthy non-perishable food items, including canned proteins like tuna, chicken and peanut butter, canned low sugar fruits and low sodium vegetables, shelf-stable milk, breakfast items, rice and pasta.
