Several members of the group recently co-ordinated a Fathers Day Barbeque at Trout Creek Senior Center. Bingo, Barbeque and lots of fun were the order of the day. They also collected several hundred flip flops for local homeless shelters and children at Sulzbacher Center at their Flip Flop Friday meeting in June. They were very appreciative of those in the community who donated flip flops. They will also be collecting used eyeglasses that will be fitted and given locally to clients through Vision is Priceless and Volunteers in Medicine with the assistance of Dr. Janet Betchkal.
The group in the last several months has helped Betty Griffin House, Mandarin Food Bank, our servicemen in Iraq and Afghanistan, several families through Community Hospice, Nielsen OrganTransplant, Moultrie Creek Nursing Home, St. Francis House, and Sulzbacher Center.
Helping Hands is a volunteer organization that meets the last Friday of the month at Faith Community Church Community Center at 12PM to do a small project for the community. The group is non-denominational. Members are always welcome. There are no dues, officers or stress. Projects are determined by members suggestions. The group relies solely on donations of goods and services. For more information contact
