OFBPA Community Support
For 2016 OFBPA will continue its strong support for the Eastside Emergency Family Shelter , located adjacent to MedStar Franklin Square Medical Center , at 9100 Franklin Square Drive Baltimore, MD 21237.
OFBPA began supporting the Eastside Emergency Family Shelter in late 2011, and developed a monthly collection program focused on seasonal needs for the shelter, along with numerous staple items that continuously require restocking.
The shelter houses 125-140 women and children on a regular basis and relies heavily on donations by the community. All items from our monthly list or the shelter wish list are welcome at any time. Items may be brought to any event/meeting or dropped off at the shelter directly. Please mark OFBPA and attention April Stevens.
