Montgomery County Family Center

Produce Mobile Market

Once a month, the Capital Area Food Bank's Mobile Market comes to the Catholic Charities Center. Within 3 hours, 8,000+ pounds of free, fresh produce is distributed to about 250 low-income individuals and families in Montgomery County. We rely on the help of volunteers to make this possible!

Volunteers collect client data, hand out numbers, distribute food, and assist with set up and clean up. Activities will include lifting and bending. Our community needs this help now more than ever. Join us on the the first Tuesday of the month to help bring needed healthy foods to our neighbors. We start distributing the food at 10AM.

Qualifications: 

• High school students may participate if they are accompanied by an adult and bring a completed  Parent Guardian Waiver.
  • Parent-Guardian Waiver for Volunteers who are Minors
• Ability to lift boxes and stand outside for approximately 3 hours
• Volunteer's household showed no COVID-19 like symptoms for the last 14 days

Location: 12247 Georgia Ave, Silver Spring, MD 20902
