Since beginning in September 2011, Open Hands has been blessed with the resources to be able to assist those in need in our community. Today, we help about 400 families per month with food and financial assistance, along with other support. But facts and figures can’t tell you the stories of those that have come through our doors. Through personal interviews, we try to get to know our guests and understand their needs so that we may be able to assist them in the best way possible.Here Are Some of Their Stories

One little boy pulled on
the sleeve of a volunteer and
asked if he was going to get
some food since he was
hungry.
A mom with a decent job
who’s husband left and
drained their bank account.
She and her three sons were
sleeping in the same bed for
warmth as she couldn’t
afford heat.
