13 January 2016 - 2:26AM
Navient Foundation, the philanthropic fund of the nation’s leading
loan management, servicing and asset recovery company, donated
$15,000 to the Ministry of Caring Inc. in Wilmington. The
contribution will help provide food for residents at the Ministry’s
two shelters for women and children and to purchase new computers
and printers for its Job Placement Center. The Ministry of Caring
Inc. provides a network of social, health and support services for
those living in poverty, including the homeless and working poor,
in the greater Wilmington area.
“When women and children arrive at our Hope House emergency
shelters, they no longer have to worry about whether they’ll have
enough food to eat, and that allows them to focus on bigger goals
related to education, employment and housing,” said Pete Kennedy,
communications director, the Ministry of Caring Inc. “We’re very
grateful for this generous donation from Navient Foundation, which
will provide nourishment for our shelters, as well as computers
that will be vital tools for those seeking dignified work through
our Job Placement Center.”
The Ministry of Caring Inc. provides many programs, including
multiple child care centers, emergency shelters, long-term and
transitional housing, job placement centers and other support
services.
“Local residents always have a place to turn to for shelter,
thanks to the Ministry of Caring,” said Sheila Ryan-Macie, senior
vice president, Navient. “We are grateful to help assist in the
Ministry’s efforts in providing the local community with a haven of
support for those who need it most.”
In addition to its care-giving services, the Ministry of Caring
Inc. also hosts fundraising events throughout the year, such as its
Mardi Gras celebration and monthly International Night dining
series from January through October, which features a different
cultural theme from selected foreign countries, such as Polish
night and Spanish night.
