AfriThrive Launches Infrastructure Taskforce to Guide Next Phase of Growth

AfriThrive launched its Infrastructure Taskforce on January 29, 2026, bringing together eight leaders from food distribution, agriculture, government, and nonprofit management. The advisory group will help the Maryland nonprofit plan the buildings, land, and operations it needs after serving 13,135 families across three counties in 2025.

Large group of AfriThrive volunteers and staff gathered in a snowy parking lot in front of two white AfriThrive mobile food pantry vans. The diverse group of approximately 25-30 people, dressed in winter coats, stands together smiling at the camera. The vans display the AfriThrive logo featuring the African continent and text reading 'NOURISH. EDUCATE. EMPOWER.' The scene captures a community food distribution event on a winter day with bare trees visible in the background.
