TouchPoint Baltimore

Building a better community starts with enhancing the lives of its residents. That’s the goal – the passion – of TouchPoint Baltimore. We are a unique collaboration of three nonprofit groups, two local corporations, and a community partner leveraging our assets to strengthen the Mondawmin community and Baltimore by sharing resources, information, and access to talent and networks. NONPROFIT PARTNERS: THREAD helps under-performing high school students overcome significant barriers outside of the classroom and become self-motivated, resilient, and responsible citizens. Each student is matched with a team of committed volunteers for 10 years and provided access to community resources to foster academic advancement and personal growth. BALTIMORE CORPS enlists talented leaders to advance Baltimore’s most promising social innovations and establish a citywide agenda for equity and racial justice.
