About Us
You can help the homeless with food and confidence!
We Are 4 is a unique and personal response to hunger and the growing unhoused unemployment. This effort is entirely organized and maintained through the hard work of volunteers and generous individuals who provide the vast majority of our financial support.
We Are 4 of Maryland is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization (Tax-ID 83-1054178) dedicated to providing low-income and unhoused of Maryland with nutritious meals, clothing, and growing to assistance in the transition to employment and life off the streets. Your generosity helps us provide two main programs dedicated to assisting the unhoused; a meals program and Hire the Unhoused employment program.
We Are 4 will operate a meal program every other Saturday through-out Maryland. The on-going meal program began in March 2018 as one woman’s response to the hunger she witnessed among the low-income and unhoused. The hire the unhoused began in January 2020 (see below).
We Are 4, Corporate is a non-profit organization dedicated to assisting the unhoused of Maryland by providing work opportunities. All funding is received from generous donors. We are in donations to fund our 2025 work program. With your help, we are able to NURTURE those that are unhoused without restrictions.

Future
The future goals of this organization is two-fold:
First:
To purchase ($176 to rent 12 pax van for 4 hours) a vehicle to transport homeless workers to areas in need of our assistance not serviced by the city, such as Brooklyn, and South Baltimore areas. In February 2023, the Baltimore Mayor kicked off the Clean Corps Initiative. The Clean Corps neighborhoods are Arlington, Broadway East, Coldstream Homestead Montebello, Darley Park, Druid Heights, East Baltimore Midway, Four by Four, Greenspring, Carrollton Ridge, Druid Heights, Fayette Street Outreach, Franklin Square, Harlem Park, Penn North, Sandtown Winchester, Upton, and Westport.
Second:
Affordable Housing
The Recovery Oasis initiative is a partnership between Baltimore city Youth Architectural Design Collaborative (BCYADC) and WeAre4 non-profits. The initiative will provide affordable and sustainable first-time home buying and rental opportunities to men and women transforming from homeless to homebound while providing an environment conductive to sustaining lifelong recovery from drug and alcohol abuse.
15 Pax vehicle needed to expand our reach.

Make a Gift
As a nonprofit that does not accept government assistance, we rely on YOU to fund our programs aimed at helping the homeless of Maryland living in the streets.
YOUR IMPACT
Your generous donation helps provide a meal to our homeless and will fund our future initiative to provide our homeless friends opportunities into the workforce by enabling access to local businesses to learn skills needed to regain jobs, housing, and self-confidence. By design, we accept no government assistance so we can do everything we can to help the homeless become self-sufficient. Your donation will directly help people find jobs and leave the streets with confidence for good.
