Giving To The Homeless -- Doing our part to eliminate hunger
About Us
Giving To The Homeless started in Portland, Oregon in 2002, then in 2005 the organization moved to Wilmington, Delaware.
"Giving To The Homeless " (GTTH) is a registered nonprofit tax exempt 501(C) (3) ministry, which is not affiliated with any church or any other organization. GTTH believes it is every human beings God given right not to be hungry, which is why GTTH serves two populations. The first is the homeless and the second is the below poverty level income families, which usually consists of one parent with two or more small children. We also believe because hunger can affect anyone, GTTH serves everyone.
What We Do
Through donations from the local community such as yourself, GTTH goes into the heart of Wilmington, Delaware five days a week . We cook and serve meals to the homeless and below poverty level income families. We also have a large clothing give away (often with other useful items) during the week. At this time we are serving about 500-800 meals a week. During the summer months this number increases, thus the need for donations increases. Even though we are small, we also support women's shelters in Wilmington with food and a variety of other items. Additionally, except for the shelters, everything we do is outside on the streets, no matter what the weather. All of what we do is accomplished with only five loyal volunteers, one van and one trailer. (Luke 3:11)
