$5,000 goal

Help Family Promise of Southern Delaware prevent families from becoming homeless! 

Your donations in previous years have helped over 300 families avoid becoming homeless.  Our Prevention Program funds helped families with rental/utility arrearages and moving-in expenses.

For 2025, We have exciting news to share! Family Promise of Southern Delaware has been awarded a $10,000 Challenge Grant from Help Us Move In (HUMI) to support our Prevention Program.

But here’s the challenge—we must raise $10,000 to receive HUMI’s matching funds! That means every dollar you donate will be doubled, providing even more support to families at risk of homelessness.

How You Can Help:
All donations made during DoMore24—from 6 PM on March 6th to 6 PM on March 7th—will count toward our $10,000 match goal.

By giving during this 24-hour window, you can double your impact and help us keep families in their homes.

Can we count on you? In the meantime, please add us on Facebook and share this opportunity with your friends and family and network!

Together, we can make a real difference. Thank you for your continued support!
