Baltimore, MD, September 15, 2026 —
Meals on Wheels of Central Maryland has officially commenced construction on a significant expansion project. The organization broke ground on a new $54 million headquarters and kitchen facility, situated in southwest Baltimore. This development marks a pivotal moment in the organization’s efforts to enhance its service capabilities.
The new facility is designed with the primary objective of substantially increasing the organization’s capacity to produce meals. Specifically, the project aims to triple its current meal production capabilities. This expansion is intended to allow Meals on Wheels of Central Maryland to serve a greater number of seniors and families throughout the region.
A key anticipated outcome of this increased capacity is the reduction of existing waiting lists. By being able to prepare and distribute more meals, the organization hopes to reach more individuals who are currently on waiting lists for meal services. The overall goal is to ensure more community members have access to nutritious meals.
The construction project is scheduled for completion in 2028. The contractor’s name was not provided. Further details regarding the specific square footage or additional features of the new headquarters and kitchen were not immediately available.
