Ignatian Service & Justice
Developing Men For Others
Community work is where spiritual growth and being a man for others takes concrete form. Loyola Blakefield’s Ignatian Service and Justice Program makes the concepts of love for the human family and commitment to social justice vivid and relevant. More than an add-on activity, Ignatian Service and Justice is an integral part of a Jesuit education and courses through the heart and soul of our curricula.
Food Pantry Accepting Donations
For over 25 years, Loyola Blakefield has supported our Catholic community within Baltimore City with yearly food drives and holiday gift giving. Given the immense needs of the parishes, Loyola has increased its commitment to reduce food insecurity by opening a permanent food pantry at the school. We need your continued support to provide healthy food for the Loyola Blakefield Food Pantry so we can make monthly food donations to our partners in need.
Donations will be accepted on select Wednesday and Friday mornings. Donations can be dropped off on the carts outside Knott Hall and Sheridan Hall. Please consider donating healthy non-perishable items from our suggested donation list. You can also support the pantry by purchasing items from our Amazon wishlist.
