To help those in need, primarily feeding the hungry and housing the homeless; to pool the resources of local congregations to serve neighbors in the Cape Henlopen School District.
The Lewes-rehoboth Association of Congregations Inc centers its grantmaking on food insecurity and housing/homelessness, using local congregational resources to support neighbors in the Cape Henlopen School District. Its recent record shows a sustained emphasis on program assistance for ministries and community partners that address hunger and shelter needs in the Lewes-Rehoboth area. The largest recent award in the data is $285,000 to Community Rescource Center in Rehoboth Beach, followed by another $285,000 grant the prior year and a $240,000 grant in 2023, indicating a continuing relationship rather than a one-off award. Another recurring recipient is What Is Your Voice in Lewes, which received $100,000 in 2023, $86,000 in 2024, and $52,000 in 2025. Grants also reached Lighthouse for Broken Wings, Family Promise of Southern Delaware, West Side New Beginnings, and Springboard Collective, showing support for multiple local organizations serving basic needs. The foundation funds both operating and capital needs through open grant programs tied to food and housing insecurity, and it also supports local ministry partners through proceeds from the New Life Thrift Shop.
Food insecurity is one of the clearest themes in the grant record. The foundation gave $285,000 to Community Rescource Center in Rehoboth Beach for program assistance, and $25,000 to Milton Community Food Pantry in Milton. Housing instability is the other major focus. Family Promise of Southern Delaware in Lewes received $50,000 in 2025 after earlier grants of $40,000 in 2024 and $35,000 in 2023, all for program assistance. The Lewes-rehoboth Association of Congregations Inc also backs community-based ministries and local service providers, including $50,000 to West Side New Beginnings in Rehoboth Beach in 2025 and $9,500 to The Way Home in Georgetown in 2024 and again in 2025. A separate grant of $30,000 to Harry K Foundation in Rehoboth Beach appears in the recent record as part of this local network of support.
Typical grant size sits at $38,750 at the 25th percentile, $50,000 at the median, and $100,000 at the 75th percentile. The recent grants show repeated support to the same organizations across multiple years, including Community Rescource Center, What Is Your Voice, Family Promise of Southern Delaware, West Side New Beginnings, Lighthouse for Broken Wings, and The Way Home. That pattern points to ongoing relationships rather than isolated awards. The foundation is a public charity and, within its active programs, offers operating support and capital grants. Unsolicited applications are accepted, with operating requests limited to once per calendar year and capital expense applications accepted at any time during the calendar year.
