What we do

 WLF works in many ways "behind the scenes" in building relationships that heal in the Wilmington area.

  *CCDA – WLF promotes the principles of Christian Community Development and assists in scholarships to the annual CCDA conference held in a different US City every year.  This is a wonderful teaching and networking conference for people and faith-based organizations who are working with under-resourced communities.

    *Brokering and Linking funding through the national LF network to local community organizations - WLF currently connects targeting funding to Communities in Schools for mentoring youth and to One Christian Network for an initiative called "Charity to Change."  This initiative has brought churches and faith-based groups together to work on projects addressing key community issues such as homelessness and community-school partnerships.

*CHANGE Gatherings and Leadership Development – WLF identifies and at times brings together community leaders and “doers” to address race, faith & justice matters, as well as building relationships, networking and supporting each other in community efforts.
