Mount Lebanon Baptist Church

Mt. Lebanon Baptist Church is located just north of Mondawmin Mall, and across the street from Parks & People Foundation’s new Auchentoroly Campus. From August 2010 to August 2012, the church served as a subcontractor to Saint Vincent DePaul to run a program in which 3,000 Head Start meals were prepared daily in the church’s commercial kitchen, and delivered to various Baltimore City Head Start sites. The program trained and certified people in culinary skills and food handling regulations. As demand for the program outgrew the Mt. Lebanon kitchen, the program moved to a larger site on the east side of the city. As a result, the workforce development program became less accessible to residents of the West Baltimore communities around Mondawmin. This management assistance grant provided funds to hire a consultant to perform a feasibility study on re-establishing a culinary workforce development program run entirely by the church.
