We recognize that the past couple years haven’t been easy for everyone and we’re so honored by the customers who have stuck by us. This feeling of gratitude has driven a desire to give back to the community ourselves.
 
That’s why we are proud to announce the Martin & Calloway Community Give Back Program! Each month we donate a portion of our profits from every job to a select local charity. Below is our list of past and current recipients. We encourage you to read their stories and donate directly via the links provided!
 

January/February 2022: Preservation Delaware

Preservation Delaware, Inc. was founded in 1993 to protect the architectural and historical heritage of Delaware.

Having honed our skills in some of the oldest and most beautiful homes and buildings along Delaware’s Brandywine Valley, we at Martin & Calloway have a deep appreciation for the storied history and significance of our region’s longest-standing structures. This month, we will be donating a portion of our proceeds to Preservation Delaware to help them preserve these beautiful buildings and landmarks that are quickly disappearing.

December 2021: Habitat for Humanity

Habitat for Humanity has worked hard to help over 600 families in New Castle County obtain a beautiful home of their own…and we’re obviously big fans of beautiful homes!

Through their Creating Affordable Homeownership, Critical Home Repair, and “Rock the Block” Community Empowerment programs, Habitat for Humanity is making a huge difference in our community while giving people the tools they need to realize their dreams of homeownership.

November 2021: Sunday Breakfast Mission

The Sunday Breakfast Mission is making a huge impact on those in our community who are suffering from homelessness, addiction, and poverty. They are one of the largest temporary housing shelters in the Wilmington area and offer life-changing programs and services designed to break the cycles of addiction and homelessness.

During the holiday season, while most of us are gathered with family and friends, they host a large Thanksgiving meal for those most in need. We are honored to partner with the Sunday Breakfast Mission and wholeheartedly support their efforts in the Wilmington, Delaware area.

September/October 2021: Food Bank of Delaware

The Covid-19 pandemic has shined a spotlight on how many families in our state are food insecure. The Food Bank of Delaware has been a huge help in reducing hunger in our state and we are excited to contribute to them as this month’s Community Give Back recipient.

The Food Bank of Delaware’s Backpack Program provides bags of food to children when school is not in session. In addition to their successful backpack program, the Food Bank of Delaware also runs a variety of food pantry programs.

We are honored to partner with the Food Bank of Delaware and applaud their hard work, especially during these challenging times. You can contribute to their important efforts by clicking the button below!

 

July/August 2021: Justin’s Beach House
 

Justin’s Beach House is an incredible charity that provides a vacation home in Bethany Beach free of charge to families dealing with a cancer diagnosis.

When dealing with the hard reality of cancer, a vacation can often be out of reach financially. Justin’s Beach House gives families a much-needed escape without any financial hardship.

If you’d like to donate directly to this very worthy cause, or find our more information about Justin’s Beach House, hit the ‘Donate’ button below to visit their website!

June 2021: Faithful Friends Animal Society’s “Healing Touch Fund”
 

Faithful Friends Animal Society is a no-kill animal shelter, an advocate for animal welfare, and a resource for pet owners in Wilmington, DE.

Their Healing Touch Fund provides desperately needed veterinary care for abandoned and surrendered pets who end up in the care of the Faithful Friends’ team. We are honored to partner with Faithful Friends this month to save more pets and give them a second chance at life!

May 2021: Meals on Wheels Delaware
 
In 2020, the pandemic increased the number of homebound seniors using the service by more than 40% and the number of meals served increased by over 26%. Despite these challenges, Meals on Wheels Delaware rose to the challenge and served 877,682 hot, nutritious meals to over 6,200 seniors statewide. These meal visits and safety checks help seniors cope with the biggest threats of aging: hunger, isolation, and the loss of independence.
 
This service is so necessary for our community and we’re proud to support them this month! You can contribute simply by hiring Martin & Calloway for your project this month, but if you would like to make a donation directly to Meals on Wheels Delaware, you can do so by clicking the button below:

Every month we will feature a new local charity. If you have a charity suggestion, please reach out to us! We would love to hear about it.
