Thank you to all of our supporters in these past few weeks! We have already delivered many blankets to our seniors and orders are still coming in. Donations are open on our website. You can make a difference. Thank you!

Utility bills, especially natural gas bills are devastating our local seniors.  Many are struggling to put food on the table and now keeping warm will become a luxury. They need your help. You can purchase a warm blanket at ShopHelpingHands.us and we will deliver to a Senior in Need.  Additionally, you can purchase a blanket and drop it off at our collection sites:

Canyon Lake Community Church

Pack Wrap & Ship in the Canyon Lake Town Center

Canyon Lake Mobile Golf Cart Repair in Lake Elsinore

Help us help them.

December 2022 was a wonderful month full of events for Helping Hands. Our distribution teams set out each week and delivered hundreds of bags of food to our neighbors in need. Not only did the bags have food, but also socks thanks to our very successful Socktober sock drive! On the second Saturday of December, our volunteers came together and packed food. Helping Hands provided cookies, donuts, and Christmas music as our volunteers worked. During our packing event, we had our annual toy drive, Toys from the Heart. Members of our community donated their lightly used toys to give to children who needed a little magic this Christmas season. We also had a special guest, the man himself, Mr. Claus! He brought cheer to our day and helped gather toys. Another wonderful blessing came from Bolder Electric. They donated 10 brand new bikes. The sounds of joy and laughter from the children warmed our hearts.  We cannot thank our supporters and volunteers enough for making December 2022 one to remember.
