Bank of America Supports Employment Program

The Arc of Delaware thanks the Bank of America Charitable Foundation for its generous donation of $30,000 in support of our Employment Program.

Bank of America and The Arc of Delaware have a long and successful partnership that provides unique and essential services to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Bank of America’s Support Services Department offers well-paying jobs with excellent benefits to a community that has one of the highest unemployment rates in the country; we are extremely grateful to the Bank for its dedication and forward thinking, as well as its financial support.

The Arc of Delaware Remembers

Mary HornOn Saturday, April 20th, the Mid-Del Committee of The Arc of Delaware hosted its 13th Annual 5K Run, Walk & Roll and 1 Mile Walk & Roll. The event was dedicated to the memory of Mary D. Horn, who graciously served the Mid-Del Committee for some 40 years, first as its office manager, and then upon her retirement as an active volunteer until her passing on February 4, 2013 at the age of 87.

All six of her children – Kathleen and her husband R. Christopher Spicer of Haddonfield, N.J., Sandra Hitchens of Wilmington, DE, Christine and husband Alexander Giacco of Wilmington, DE, Michael and wife Gloria Horn of Dover, J. Scott and wife Joann Horn of Vorhees, N.J., and Jeffrey Horn of Dover – along with their families and many Arc staff joined together as “Team Mary” to celebrate her life and legacy at this event.

Mary was an integral part of The Arc and is sorely missed. Though she was not physically with us at the event, her contributions will remain forever.
