Housing stability begins with everyday household essentials. Every dollar contributed directly funds Housing Opportunities of Northern Delaware’s (HOND) certified first-time homebuyer education, default counseling, and tenant advocacy programs across New Castle County. To show our gratitude and pay it forward, every monthly contribution enters you into our monthly Community Grocery Relief Drawing. One lucky supporter wins a Grocery Gift Card (ShopRite, Giant, or ACME) to help with their family's grocery budget—or chooses to gift it forward to a local family working through HOND's housing stability program!
