We’re grateful to share that AIDS Delaware has received a $2,200 Nourishing Our Neighbors grant from the Food Lion Feeds Charitable Foundation. This support helps us increase access to fresh, nutritious food and nutrition education for our Medical Case Management clients, especially in Kent and Sussex counties.

For many people living with HIV, food security is healthcare. This funding helps us reduce barriers, ease stress, and keep our southern office food pantry stocked for those who need it most.
