Tommy’s Pantry
Since March of 2020, Tommy’s Pantry community outreach has evolved to meet the ever-changing needs of the families we serve. Tommy’s Pantry is a recognized 501(c)3 non-profit organization based in lower Montgomery County, MD. We proudly carry the name of the late Tommy Raskin, whose unwavering belief in ensuring human dignity remains the foundation of our mission.
With support from donors, partners, and volunteers, Tommy’s Pantry distributes 300 shelf-stable food boxes, 325 wellness boxes (comprising hygiene items and cleaning products), and 160 fresh produce boxes once per month, offering vital support to more than 325 local households facing hardship.
Through our monthly distributions and our participation in the Manna Smart Sacks program, we are currently on track to serve 11,340 households this year.
