If you live in #Maryland and have cash to spare, please consider donating to the Maryland Food Bank before the end of the month. The loss of SNAP benefits in Maryland is going to overwhelm them and they need all the help they can get. They're a four-star charity on Charity Navigator so you can be confident that your money is being used well. If you can't donate but have time, consider volunteering instead.
