School's out for summer, but for thousands of Delaware children, that also means losing access to the breakfast and lunch meals they count on during the school year.

For families already stretched thin by the high cost of groceries, fuel, housing, utilities, and other everyday expenses, summer can bring added stress and uncertainty.

The good news? You can help make a difference.

We were honored to have our entire team recognized with the Delaware National Guard’s Community Spirit Award during our quarterly all-staff meeting this morning at our Milford facility.

The award recognizes the collective efforts of our staff to support Delaware National Guard families during last fall’s federal government shutdown. While the award was initially presented in April to Vice President of Human Resources Julie Reichlin and Vice President of External Affairs Chad Robinson at the National Guard’s Senior Leader Conference, Guard leadership made it clear that this recognition belonged to every member of our team.

We were especially grateful to welcome Major Gen. James Benson and Christine Kubik to Milford to present the award in person and celebrate this shared commitment to service.

Just a reminder: We will be closed today, Friday, June 5, for our quarterly all-staff meeting.

We apologize for any inconvience, we will be closed on Friday, June 5 for our quarterly staff meeting!
