Our Daily Bread
Built for Baltimore, by Baltimore
This project was built in collaboration with Volunteers for Medical Engineering and Doctors Without Borders at Johns Hopkins University. We are committed to serving our community with dignity and respect.
Our Mission
Baltimore Foodline is dedicated to bridging the gap between Baltimore residents and essential food resources. We believe everyone deserves access to nutritious food.
Text-First Design
Not everyone has internet access. That's why we built a text-based system that works on any phone — no smartphone or data plan required.
Local Focus
We partner with over 150 food pantries, shelters, and community organizations across Baltimore to provide accurate, real-time information.
