ABOUT THE MARSHALL HOPE CORPORATION
Founded in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Marshall Hope Corporation was born out of a shared desire to support underserved Hispanic families in Annapolis who were facing job loss and lacked access to government assistance. What began as a small effort to help one family has grown into a vital community resource, delivering food and essential supplies to over 350 households each week. With the help of local businesses, volunteers, and generous donations, the pantry serves hundreds of families by providing fresh groceries, including fruits, vegetables, dairy, and meat. Their mission remains focused on spreading hope in the Annapolis community by providing essential resources and services to vulnerable and underserved families.
