“Not long ago, one of our clients said: ‘I didn’t need a second chance. I just needed a door that didn’t close on me.’

That’s what we do at Delphi Rise — keep the door open. For people leaving incarceration, for those struggling with substance use, for families fighting to hold things together.

The path back to stability takes time, but it starts with someone believing you belong here.

If you believe in that too, visit delphirise.org/donate.

“This time of year, our pantry shelves move fast. A parent comes in for food and quietly asks if we have diapers too. Another asks if we have something easy to make — she’s staying in a motel with no kitchen.

These moments are small, but they’re everything. They remind us that hunger doesn’t stop when the holidays begin — and that stability starts with something as simple as a meal.

At Delphi Rise, our pantry program helps more than 400 families a year find a little breathing room. This season, we’re making sure those shelves stay full.

🍎 Food Fuels Recovery. SNAP benefits often don’t stretch far enough — especially for families rebuilding their lives after crisis. Our pantry helps fill that gap by providing food, hygiene supplies, and grocery support to those on the path to recovery.
💚 $10: Provides breakfast basics for one client for an entire week.
💚 $20: Gives a Rochester Public Market voucher for fresh, local food for their families.
💚 $50: Supplies essential hygiene items for up to 20 clients.
💚 $100: Fills an entire pantry box with enough food to support a family for a week.

Every dollar makes a difference. When you support the Delphi Rise Pantry Fund, you’re nourishing stability, dignity, and hope for those working toward recovery.

🎧 Red Ribbon Week Spotlight! 🎧
Prevention Counselor Emmett Walsh partnered with Uplift Irondequoit to bring a week full of positivity and prevention to students!
💬 At lunch, students spun a wheel of healthy decision-making prompts and wrote uplifting messages to spread around the school.
🎓 In 8th grade health classes, they learned how to spot deceptive advertising in the cannabis industry and make informed choices.
🎶 The day’s theme? “Tune Out Drugs and Negativity” — students showed their spirit by rocking their favorite band and music shirts!

✨ Red Ribbon Week at Bay Trail Middle School ✨
This week, our Prevention Team joined students at Bay Trail Middle School in Penfield to celebrate Red Ribbon Week — the nation’s largest and longest-running drug-use prevention campaign.

Students proudly signed the drug-free pledge, learned about making healthy choices, and even got to meet some very special guests from RocDog Therapy 🐾

Led by our incredible Prevention Counselor, Sara Markovitz, the activities helped empower students to support one another and commit to a drug-free future.

❤️ Red Ribbon Week serves as a catalyst for communities to educate youth and encourage participation in drug-prevention efforts. Learn more at redribbon.org.
