Shepherd’s Table: A Local Non-Profit Provides Food, Vaccines and Hope

For nearly four decades, the non-profit organization Shepherd’s Table located in the heart of Silver Spring has offered food, clothes and basic services to low-income and homeless people in Montgomery County.

In recent months, with the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has disproportionately hit vulnerable communities, the work of this organization became more imperative than ever. Shepherd’s Table has helped the community with food insecurity, COVID-19 testing and getting vaccinated.

MyMCMedia visited Shepherd’s Table to learn first hand about the work this organization has been doing during these difficult times.
