WHAT We're doing
November Highlights
November is a month of gratitude.
a time to pause, reflect, and give thanks in ways that honor every culture, background, and tradition.
As many households prepare for the season ahead, we recognize that some will be facing new challenges with the loss of SNAP benefits beginning November 1.
We remain committed to helping families access the support they need. This month, we’re sharing updated lists of food banks, local pantries, and emergency resources to ensure no one goes without essentials during this time.
This month is also National Family Caregivers Month, a time to recognize the incredible individuals who provide comfort, care, and stability to loved ones facing illness including those in the cancer community. We honor you, and we see the vital role you play every day.
In addition, November highlights several important awareness causes, including Lung Pancreatic and Stomach Cancer Awareness. Each serves as a reminder of the continued importance of early detection, screening, and community education.
What's NExt
Our annual Holiday Hope project is hitting the stage this December in the form of a community stage play, All I Want for Christmas…. We’re trading our seriousness for some serious fun, and it's all for some very special children. 2025 Holiday Hope outreach will benefit CHILD, Inc., supporting children and families in Delaware domestic violence shelters this holiday season.
AND we've added the Jingle Bell Bazaar holiday shopping market.
Let's make some memories and some magic!
Every ticket, every laugh it all adds up to hope. 💜
