Today on DelmarvaLife –
A little boy who has dreams and aspiration of living the life of a typical child is, instead, in a battle for his life. Max Shockley is undergoing treatment for Leukemia. Max’s grandparents, Mark and Brenda Shores, of Salisbury explain how we can help Max through “Team Maximus.”
Suicide is the tenth leading cause of death in the US, and it can be prevented. This is a message that is being highlighted during National Suicide Month. Carol Masden of Eastern Shore Crisis Response Services talks with us about the upcoming “Out of the Darkness” walks and tells us why they are so important.
Families in need of decent, affordable housing live everywhere, including here on Delmarva. That’s why Johnny Janosik World of Furniture established a partnership with Sussex County Habitat for Humanity. We find out how this partnership works, and how you can help.
The Riverwalk Freedom Festival is this weekend in Milford. DelmarvaLife’s Katie Zarrilli gives us a preview of all the fun.
It all began with a simple idea, a way to feature the very best tastes, sounds, people, and passions of Coastal Delaware. Here we are, five years later, and the SoDel Fest is the place to indulge in a day of wine, food, and music while helping children’s charities. We learn more about the event that’s happening this weekend.
