What a wonderful day at the Mother’s Day Arts & Crafts Show! 🌸🎨💝

A huge thank you to everyone who came out to support local artists, vendors, and the community. We loved seeing so many smiling faces, beautiful handmade creations, and the community enjoying the day together.

Special thanks to I ❤️ BAD ART STUDIO, all of the talented vendors who participated, and every single person who stopped by to learn more about our mission and support our artists. Community events like these remind us how powerful connection, creativity, and kindness can be. ❤️

Until next time! 🌷✨

Proud to see Springboard Delaware’s work gaining momentum across Sussex County.

This is bigger than one town, homelessness requires coordinated, countywide solutions. And it’s working: over 200 individuals served and more than 40% already moving into independent living.

Real impact happens when we invest in people, not just temporary fixes.

If you’ve been looking for a way to make a difference locally, please reach out for ways you can make an impact!

A full-circle moment at Springboard Delaware 💙

This month, we said goodbye to the original community tent that once held so many shared meals, resources, and connections, a symbol of how far we’ve come.

From garden planting to creative expression in our Healing Arts Program, growth is happening all around us! 🌺

When severe winter weather hit our community, partnership in action helped protect our most vulnerable neighbors! 💚

Working alongside our partners, including First State Community Action Agency, we were able to coordinate meals and safe shelter support for 77 individuals during the storm response period.

We are truly grateful for the collaboration, leadership, and compassion shown across this network of service organizations. It’s a powerful reminder of how much good can be done when we come together. Thank you, Sussex County!
