2026 Kandler Celebration

The people are marching, the people are loud, we’re done being silenced — and we will not bow! The joy democracy-defenders feel when we are all in a room together is palpable. Help us to build that energy by sponsoring this year’s Kandler Celebration. As a community of activists, we do not want cost to be a barrier to anyone in our community who would like to join us in celebration of our mission and community initiatives. Every sponsorship allows us to welcome all community members to celebrate together because when we work together, we win together, and democracy needs us now. Join us in celebrating our collective community action with an evening of hors d’oeuvres, beverages, and an online silent auction to support civil liberties work in Delaware! Each year, we remember Gerry Kandler, former president of ACLU Delaware, and honor those who exemplify his tireless commitment to the defense of all Delawareans’ civil liberties.

Policing in Wilmington: A Community Conversation, June 18 5-7pm

Policing in Wilmington: A Community Conversation

Join your community members to discuss policing issues in Wilmington. Delaware's policing systems should keep communities safe, treat people fairly, and use resources wisely in order to build and maintain trust with the community. The first step to a better system is acknowledging the issues. We're holding a listening session to hear directly from the people of Wilmington about the issues they have faced and the change they wish to see in their city. This event will also include a Know Your Rights presentation to make sure Delawareans are informed about the rights and protections they have when interacting with the police. Make your voice heard and learn more about your constitutional rights from civil rights advocates in Delaware!
