First Fruit Ministries

What began in 1998 as one man delivering food to homeless children has grown into a lifeline for Wilmington’s most vulnerable. A simple outreach turned into a movement—weekly meals became full-scale food programs, emergency aid expanded into safe housing, and street outreach evolved into long-term recovery support. Today, we provide shelter, nourishment, spiritual guidance, and essential services for survivors of homelessness and trafficking, carrying forward a 25-year legacy of restoring lives and rebuilding futures.
