As the leaves begin to change and the holiday season approaches, it’s time to embrace the spirit of giving.
We invite you to join us in-person Millsgiving Food Drive, taking place from Now through November 9th at The Mill Wilmington and The Mill Concord. The food drive will benefit the Food Bank of Delaware, and we would be delighted to have you with us to make a difference in the lives of Delawareans who are facing food insecurity.

Online Fundraiser: Turning Dollars into Meals
In addition to our canned food collection, we’ve also set up an online fundraiser to amplify our impact. Every dollar donated goes a long way when it comes to feeding those in need. For every $1 raised, the Food Bank of Delaware can provide 3 meals. This means that your financial contribution can have a profound effect on the well-being of families in our community.hrou
