Why Helping Hands ?

We are driven by a profound desire to create change for those grappling with adversity in our homeland.

Our decision to form this organization was fueled by compassion and advocacy. We couldn't ignore the stark realities of poverty, children begging, women struggling, and alarming maternal and infant mortality rates. We knew action was essential.

Collecting donations, we aimed to bridge the gap between privilege and need, providing basics needs. Our mission ran deeper than charity; it is a lifeline of hope.

In our journey, we realized our impact was beyond material assistance. We connected with stories and struggles, fostering bonds that transcended boundaries. Our work became a testament to empathy, shining a light in the shadows.

With every effort, we upheld our commitment to dignity and change. Our organization stands as a beacon, a testament to compassion's power. In the tapestry of lives we touch, we witness the transformation that empathy and a helping hand can bring.
