Whosoever Will Community Assistance Program

With community at the center of everything they do, the Whosoever Will Community Assistance Program is a visible expression of an all-inclusive and compassionate ministry in the Beltsville, Maryland community lead by Rev. Dr. Edwin Lloyd. Their mission is to reduce food insecurity, increase nutritional value in their community, enhance self-sufficiency, provide health and wellness information, and impart hope. 

During the pandemic, members of Whosoever Will realized just how much food insecurity was plaguing the Beltsville community and they wanted to do something about it. The organization wants to create multiple avenues in which the quality, safety, and efficacy of food distribution are ensured. They have a deep understanding of what their community needs in order to access fresh, healthy food and therefore they are working to fill the gaps. Already this year, Whosoever Will has held several food drives where they’ve been able to donate food to the community. Their partnership with NBA will allow them to continue this important faith work and expand it as well.

“The Whosoever Will Community Assistance Program exists to answer the call of God to be a visible expression of the compassionate Gospel of Jesus Christ in the community. In the process of answering God’s call, it is important that we join a community of Disciples who have heeded this call so that together, we can utilize our gifts and resources to enhance the wellbeing of all humanity,” says Lead Pastor and Executive Director of WWCAP Rev. Dr. Edwin Lloyd.
