Getting Started
The idea behind Helping Hearts and Hands was to be a resource where the people of Gooding County could receive the help of the community and the community would be there to help when needed That is where our motto "people helping people" came from. Christ calls us to love and care for each other.
Growing
As the years passed we have grown, finding new ways to help members of our community. The extra programs and increased workload would not have been possible to attempt without the help of generous individuals who give time, money, and services to help us reach more people every year.
Today
In 2019, we distributed 1871 monthly food boxes to families experiencing food shortages. During the 2019 Christmas week alone, 213 families received special boxes (besides being able to get their regular monthly box) so they could enjoy the holiday as so many of us do.
Partners
So many people have given their time, money, and services that we could not hope to acknowledge them all. We do however have many partnering agencies that we work with that deserve to be included in our success.
