The State of Delaware has partnered with Donate Delaware to purchase 44,000 canisters of infant formula. This shipment of FDA-approved Care infant formula will increase the supply in our state and help ease the burden on Delaware families having trouble locating formula.

Canisters of Care Infant formula will be distributed to high-needs areas throughout Delaware.

The Food Bank of Delaware, Boys & Girls Clubs of Delaware, and local community organizations are partnering with the State to serve as points of distribution to these communities.

We care for our neighbors in Delaware. That’s why we’re working to bring much-needed formula to Delaware communities and in the hands of families who need it. I want to thank the team that worked to make this happen so quickly.
