It’s officially #GivingTuesday, the post–Cyber Monday online event where we take a break from all that holiday shopping to give back. We’re not going to tell you how to give, but we’re all for giving back to the community.
Last week, we told you how you can empower Delaware’s future on Giving Tuesday. Still have more to give? Here are a few Delaware-based campaigns to choose from.
Support growing minds:
Freire Charter School Wilmington is tucked away behind 1313 Market St. “Over the past three years,” said Freire Founder and CEO Kelly Davenport, “you have helped build Wilmington’s first public, non-selective college preparatory high school. Our students’ superior academic progress and test scores show that Freire Wilmington is truly transformative. We are on track not only to increase high school graduation rates for African American and Hispanic youth in our city and state, but to realize our vision of ‘Graduation X 2’ — that our students will graduate not just from high school but from college.” Click here to support.

Empower your sisters:
On #givingtuesday, I’m giving to the Junior League of Wilmington. I’m proud to be a part of an organization with 100 years (in 2018) of breaking barriers and developing the potential of women. #netDE https://t.co/RJaSGnmYxg
