Baltimore’s Summer Restaurant Week is giving back to its community. “The Journey Home” is Baltimore City’s 10-year plan to end homelessness. Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake’s goal is to make homelessness rare and brief in the Baltimore region. For every restaurant that participates in Summer Restaurant Week, Visit Baltimore and Downtown Partnership of Baltimore will donate $50 to “The Journey Home” organization. Individuals can also text “JOIN” to “20222” and for every text received between August 5 and August 14, the United Way will donate $10 to “The Journey Home.”
