Habitat for Humanity Metro Maryland is a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide decent, affordable housing in our local community. Homeownership opportunities are made available to our neighbors who might not be able to otherwise afford to purchase their own home.Proceeds from the operation of the store go towards fulfilling this mission. In addition, we keep tons of materials out of the landfill each year and preserve thousands of items that might otherwise go to waste, both new and used.
Nourish Now! provides approximately 550 families a five day supply of food each month. A majority of the families they serve pick up food donations directly from their facility in Rockville. They work with 26 social service agencies who refer families for food assistance. Nourish Now has also set up satellite distributions with the Housing Opportunities Commission (HOC) to donate prepared meals, loaves of bread and produce to families and the elderly in lower income apartment complexes. Nourish Now also collaborates with three Montgomery County Public Schools weekly to provide prepared meals during the week for the families of 80 students, as well as healthy weekend snacks for 54 students.
