Thank you for helping The Ministry of Caring further its mission to feed the hungry through our Emmanuel Dining Room's three locations through this year's Do More 24 Delaware campaign.
Continuing The Ministry of Caring’s mission of serving the poor with love, dignity, and respect by feeding the hungry at Emmanuel Dining Room (EDR), every day, EDR serves hot, nutritious meals at three locations in greater Wilmington at no fee and without questions.
Last year, your generous support helped us help over 14,000 Delawareans. In the challenging environment of high inflation, rising rents, and the increasing cost of daily grocery items, last year, our Emmanuel Dining Room program increased the number of meals served by 8.1% compared to 2023, serving 151,631 healthy, nutritious meals to men, women and children.

The Job Placement Center enrolled 344 low-income job seekers and graduated 24 new Certified Nursing Assistants, 12 Commercial Drivers, 2 Phlebotomists, and 2 Childcare Assistants.
153 low-income seniors benefitted from safe, affordable housing in the Ministry’s three senior housing developments.
