At CFF, we know that having a safe, welcoming space to decompress can make all the difference for students facing big challenges. That’s why we’re so grateful to our partners at the DNREC Division of Parks and Recreation - Delaware DNREC Delaware State Parks. During a visit to William C. Lewis Dual Language Elementary—one of the Wilmington schools we proudly support through our Community Schools program—a DNREC staff member noticed that the ZenDen, the school's designated safe space, needed some love. What happened next is a perfect example of community in action. Working together with the school and our team at CFF, DNREC staff volunteered their time and creativity to reimagine the space. On July 28, they rolled up their sleeves and transformed the Zen Den into a cozy, inspiring environment where students can relax, regroup, and feel supported. We’re proud to be part of this meaningful collaboration—and even prouder of the positive impact it will have on students in the year ahead. Check out the before and after pictures! (fb)
