Neighborhood House

Neighborhood House We provide transformational programs that positively impact low-to-moderate income communities.

Neighborhood House is a non-profit, social service agency with locations in Wilmington and Middletown (Delaware). Founded by the United Methodist Women's Home Missionary Society in 1927, the agency provides care and support for low-to-moderate income residents living in New Castle County. Operating on a foundation of Christian principles, Neighborhood House pursues two primary purposes: To assist

and guide people in finding their own paths of self-awareness, self-sufficiency, and success; and to provide leadership, support, and advocacy for a comprehensive approach to community and economic development. Better housing, family unity, education, counseling, recreation, neighborhood development, and racial and cultural understanding, as well as spiritual and emotional enrichment, are important aspects of the programs and services we offer.

Right now, your support goes twice as far.

A generous donor has pledged $15,000 to match every gift made to Neighborhood House this month.

The math is simple. If you donate a dollar, it turns into two. A $50 gift becomes $100. Give $250, and it becomes $500.

If you've been thinking about making a donation, this is a great time to do it. Help us unlock the full $15,000 by June 30 and keep our programs strong for the families we serve.

Thinking about buying your first home?

Our next Homebuyer Education Seminar is coming up on July 23, and you don't have to leave the comfort of your couch or kitchen table to attend.

Two hours is all it takes, and you'll get answers to the questions most people have: How do I qualify for a mortgage? What programs can help? What should I expect along the way? Am I ready?

And if you have something specific to ask our panel, there's time built in for Q&A. We want to help you move forward with as much clarity as possible.

When a child walks into a preschool classroom, their whole family walks in with them — and we wouldn't want it any other way.

Getting a three- or four-year-old ready for kindergarten is a team effort, and the best outcomes happen when everyone's pulling in the same direction.

If you care about family engagement and school readiness as much as we do, we're searching for our next Lead Teacher for our new state-funded preschool classroom.

"You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."

True, but here's the part we like to emphasize: every shot you do take teaches you something about the next one.

So keep taking your shot, because eventually the work pays off.

That's the mindset that matters, and the one we want every one of our young people to have — on and off the court.

Grateful to Sen. Dan Cruce for visiting this week as part of Wear Orange Weekend and National Gun Violence Awareness Day. He caught a glimpse of the creativity and passion of our kids as they expressed themselves through art.

Thank you for stopping by, Senator, and for caring about a safer community for all our neighbors.

When our Summer Enrichment Program is in session, this is a familiar sight around the neighborhood. Kids walking back from the park or playground. Staff leading the way, making sure everyone's moving in the same direction.

It's the kind of scene we don't take for granted — made possible by a team that shows up and gives it their all, and parents who trust us with their kids for eight weeks.

We can't wait to run it back this summer. 🤎

The best preschool classrooms are places where learning doesn't feel like a chore, and a great teacher is the reason why.

We're hiring a Lead Teacher for our new state-funded preschool classroom — someone who knows how to bring the right mix of energy, patience, and love for the work to a room full of bright and curious three- and four-year-olds.

If this sounds like the kind of role you've been looking for, you'll need an ECE degree, at least two years of experience teaching preschoolers, and a working knowledge of Teaching Strategies GOLD.

If you’re a parent, you’ve probably been thinking about summer break for weeks. There’s a lot to figure out, especially if you’re working and need a full-day option for the kids.

Our Summer Enrichment Program is now enrolling, and it could be just what you’re looking for. The link below has everything you need to know.

Summer's almost here, and for kids it means freedom from homework, early alarms, and rushing out the door to catch the bus. For parents, it's a little more complicated than that. Between mid-June and late August, there's a long stretch of open time to fill — along with the very real concern that y...
