ABOUT SERVE THE CITY BALTIMORE
We are all aware of Baltimore City's many areas of needs. Fortunately, there are a lot of organizations seeking to meet these needs, but hands are required to help their missions come to fruition. So why not help out the existing organizations instead of starting one more?
That's the mission of Serve the City Baltimore. Serve the City Baltimore connects volunteers to the organizations that strive to better our city through service events and projects. Some of the organizations Serve the City Baltimore has connected with volunteers include Second Chance, The Well, Believe in Tomorrow, Safe House of Hope, and Somebody Cares Baltimore.
Serve the City Baltimore has aided the poverty-stricken, homeless, and trafficked population in our beloved Baltimore, but instead of knowing this community by their needs, Serve the City Baltimore aims to know them by their names. Their mentality with serving is that we are all broken and just as broken as those whose needs we are serving. The organization also strives to cross the physical and non-physical boundaries in order to serve.
HOPE FOR SERVE THE CITY BALTIMORE
Right now, Serve the City Baltimore mostly plans service events and distributes volunteers to the connected organizations depending on how many show up on the day. Typically, they host one event in the fall and one in the spring, but the organization would love to one day serve our neighbors through ongoing service projects year round.
