WDSD Cares and We Needs Your Help

WDSD Cares

Happy Halloween! I wanted to share some info today on how you can help those in need this holiday season. As a parent myself, looking forward to my kids all dressed up and trick-or-treating tonight, we sometimes forget there are many kids who will not be in costume or have a neighborhood to trick or treat in ... they may not even get dinner tonight. So, on that note, as we head into the holiday season, I can't help but think of all those families who really need our help.

And there are different ways YOU can help:

1) I have personally been volunteering at the Sunday Breakfast Mission for a few years now, and I am building a WDSD Cares team again this year and inviting you to volunteer with me to pack food boxes that will then be distributed to help over 1,400 families. It's happening on Tuesday, November 19th from 3-5pm. Limited spots available, everyone gets a WDSD Cares tee-shirt too! If you are interested, please email me at Christa@wdsd.com and we'll chat!

2) Their annual food drive is going on right now, so if you aren't able to give your time, give food! Think how far that will go to help these families. We want to ensure no family goes without all the fixings worthy of a Thanksgiving feast. Items they are looking for are:

Boxed Stuffing Mix

Canned Vegetables

Canned Soup

Canned Gravy Mix

Canned Cranberry Sauce

Instant Potatoes

Mac and Cheese

Various Pasta

Spaghetti Sauce

Canned Beef Stew

Canned Tuna

Canned Meats Various

Boxed Cereal

Peanut Butter

Jelly

And other non-perishables

Donation of food is easy: Use your own bag or pick up a bag from 1,000 Degrees Pizza in Pike Creek, Skyzone Newark, any WSFS Branches in Delaware or our New Castle and Dover studios. Once you fill the bag, drop it off at any of those locations or directly to the Sunday Breakfast Mission at 110 N. Poplar Street, Wilmington, DE 19899.

If you drop off at 1,000 Degrees Pizza in their designated box you will receive a $5 10in pizza coupon for your support! Bag must have at least 5 items, one offer per family.

3) Give a monotary donation. It takes only $2.17 to provide one meal for a hungry person. Think how much further your gift of any amount can go! Visit www.sundaybreakfastmission.org

4) Spread the word! I would also love if you shared this info with your friends and family! By letting more people know, the more we can do. Whether you want to share my Facebook video (below) on your page or share this link with your people, that would be awesome!
