It seems like every time we start to sweat a little bit, about a busted pipe, or lack of food, our benefactors come through for us, and more importantly, those we serve. You make a difference--a huge difference. Soon we will be posting the numbers which illustrate some of the ways we've been able to measure your support, on Our Supporters page. For each and every person who donated to the Helping Hand this past year, we want to thank you. You humble us with your absolute and utter generosity, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. May God bless you for all you do to help those in need!
This year we've seen our share of challenges, but those minor setbacks have been more than offset with the awesome and incredible generosity shown by those whose with giving hearts, who believe in our mission here at Helping Hand. It's hard to keep up with all the people who have helped us. From the major Food Drives in the Fall and Christmas; to our Annual Pledge Drive; to the record-setting volunteer hours given by students and regular volunteers; to our Annual School Supply giveaway; to the beautification bestowed upon our facility during "Make A Difference Day"; to the tons of food donated to Helping Hand to help us feed our clients--each day witnesses complete love of fellow man and generosity.

The Arkansas League of Artists has a wonderful display in the lobby of the U.S. Bank branch at the corner of Spring St. and Capitol, in downtown Little Rock. There, they exhibit one of their member's paintings each month. This month, the feature artist is our own Sister Maria Liebeck, DC!
The painting featured is a beautiful abstract titled, "Holy Family". Sister Maria created Holy Family using a very unique form of paper batik. The painting will be on display for the entire month of January 2014. Our Christmas Toy Drive this year (December 16-Dec 18) was so much fun, and so successful, thanks to all the donations and work from our remarkable Volunteers. So many families will have a much happier and festive Christmas this year thanks to your generosity. We took lots of photos, too! See them all on our Events Page. If you weren't able to contribute before our deadline, you can still help us help those in need by visiting our Donation Page. We are in dire need of funds, due to a leak in the roof, which caused some damage in the office. As always, Food and Clothing Donations are ALWAYS welcome, too! Thank you to all, God Bless you, and we hope everyone has a safe and very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Today’s THV and United Way stopped by Helping Hands, the Pulaski County Distribution Center for THV’s Back to School Blitz, to see all your donations going to kids. Please visit our Facebook page for more on the story. Thank you United Way and Today's THV-11! |
