| About Us Bikur Cholim of Baltimore was started in 1985 by a group of dedicated volunteers to serve the needs of people facing illness in the Jewish community. Since then, this all-volunteer network has been providing support services to countless individuals and families from the Baltimore community, as well as people coming from all over the world to Baltimore to receive medical care from our world-class medical institutions.

| Bikur Cholim of Baltimore's mission is to channel the chesed of our community to support patients and their families from near and far.
We lighten their burden by providing food, transportation, visitation, respite, kosher hospitality rooms in area hospitals, a dedicated apartment for out-of-town cholim, free-loan medical equipment and other services. It is our belief that patients should be able to focus on getting better, being assured that the community is there to assist in any way possible.
Words of Appreciation Baltimore Bikur Cholim offered to get me whatever I needed … rides, visitors and homemade meals. Baltimore is so dear to my heart – a city of true chesed! C.R. quoted in Mishpacha magazine Thank you so much for everything that you did for us the whole week in the hospital. You called us so many times to see if we needed anything. The food pantry is amazing. D.M. (Baltimore) We can’t thank you enough for all you’ve done for our daughter and for our whole family. Your visits with her allowed me to return home to my other kids each evening, feeling secure she is in good hands. Sincerely, The L’s We knew anything, big or small, we were always able to count on you to help us through. Fondly, The B’s | |
