We rely on people like you to invest in our mission.

Your donation will help many people. Helping Hand, a not-for-profit community –based agency, serving over 400 children and adults with mild to severe disabilities every year.

We can always use your generosity.

Here are just some of the ways you can help us.

CAPITAL CAMPAIGN FOR NEW HOUSING

We are launching a capital campaign to raise funds to build a new residential building for some of our adult clients. This residential building is called an Intermediate Care Facility (or ICF) and will house some of our clients with the greatest medical needs. Our current ICF is an outdated century- old building with no accessibility for wheel chairs.

CAPITAL CAMPAIGN FOR ADULT SERVICE WING RENOVATION

Complete!
We recently completed a capital campaign to raise funds to renovate the adult services wing of our main building in Countryside. We raised $1.5 million with the help of the Coleman Foundation, UPS, and donors like you in our community. We can’t wait to break ground in the spring!

CONSIDER MAKING A PLANNED GIFT

Support the agency in a way that has a long lasting impact. A legacy of what is important to you that will stand for generations to come. Wills, trusts, and other estate planning tools are just some of the ways that you can leave a legacy gift.

ATTEND ONE OF OUR SPECIAL EVENTS

Helping Hand hosts several annual events as fundraisers for our programs and services. Our Annual Dinner Dance is an elegant winter evening filled with fabulous cuisine, drinks, and entertainment, including an exciting live auction. We also plan a golf outing (link to golf outing landing page) every summer, complete with dinner and a live auction. We sprinkle the calendar with other fun events throughout the year, so check back frequently, or contact us to be included in our event mailings.
