Donate to the Maryland Food Bank

Hunger doesn't take a break after generosity of the holiday season ends. Winter is just getting started, and so is the Jovian Concepts food drive to benefit the Maryland Food Bank. Through Valentines Day, you can drop off non-perishable food at our headquarters.

1362 Mellon Road

Hanover, MD 20176

Items most needed are fruit and rice. The Maryland Food Bank prefers fruit to be low sugar, in 100% fruit juice or water. Examples are fruit cups, raisins, applesauce, or canned fruit. The Maryland Food Bank prefers brown rice over white but will accept either kind.

Other needed items include the following:

1% or 2% shelf-stable milk (can also be soy or almond)

low sugar breakfast items

low sodium instant mashed potatoes

low sodium canned chicken, tuna, or salmon

low sodium Tuna Helper, pizza kits, or similar meal prep kits

low sodium canned beans

low sodium vegetable soup

low sodium canned vegetables

low sugar peanut butter

low sugar jelly

100% fruit juice

toiletries such as toothbrush, toothpaste, or soap

feminine hygiene products

low sodium nuts or seeds

whole wheat pasta

Because these items go to individuals and families, bulk items or industrial sized items will not be accepted.

Pop-top cans are preferred because no can-opener is needed!
