Caring Hearts Helping Hands, extends its sincere thanks to the Champions' Club Outreach Committee for its generosity. In addition to the two car loads of school supplies donated by the group, $410 was collected from the communities' residents. Due to this generosity we needed to do very little shopping for our 123 children enrolled in Heart and Sole Project this year. We were able to also purchase a gift card for shoes for each child too. Thank you, Peter and Patti Zajac and Maggie Rozmalski for co-chairing the group. We were excited to see how organized the items were and all boxes labeled.
Milford Lions Club Donates Back to the Community
Recently the Milford Lions Club donated over $83,000 to 25 Milford community organizations. The donations were from the Milford Lions Club’s Eunice S. Reed Fund. The Milford Lions Club donated $2,000 to Caring Hearts Helping Hands (CHHH), a 501-c-3 non-profit organization helping Kent County’s financially challenged working families.
Gaillyn Wadkins-Berry, Reed Fund Awards Co-Chair said, “With our donation of $2,000, we are privileged to be able to partner with CHHH to advance their service projects that improve the quality of life and education in our community”. Gina Campbell of CHHH said the money will advance the annual Christmas service project when about 125 client families with 300 children will receive a bag of new clothes, games, books, and toys. They also receive a food store gift card and gift card for footwear.
With the Milford Lion Club donation, and with the generosity of many local companies, individuals and organizations, grants, the CHHH Christmas project will continue to be successful which it has done since 2008.

Potter Charity Trust Fund
Caring Hearts Helping Hands, was awarded a generous grant of $5,000 from the Potter Charity Trust Fund. The grant will help fund CHHH’s Christmas program whereby the children of the 125 families will receive new clothes, toys, games, footwear, books, and perhaps coats and a bike.
The Delaware Community Foundation which funds the Potter Charity Trust stated, “The grant award process this year was extremely competitive. CHHH’s application was one of Kent County’s, part of the $349,000 total that was awarded. It awards millions of dollars in grants to support the work of non profits addressing Delaware’s greatest needs and opportunities, with an eye to building opportunity and advancing equity.”
Earlier this year CHHH received a grant from the Wilmington Flower Market of $3,500 towards its Christmas program. Many businesses, non -profits and individuals make monetary donations and shop for the CHHH clients. Those who donate to CHHH assist 125 low-income working families with 300+ kids.
