WHERE IT ALL STARTED…
As we continue our Give 828 countdown, I wanted to take y’all back to the beginning of Lisha’s Helping Hands.
When we first started, we were a community outreach organization. If there was a need and we had a way to help, we showed up.
We served our homeless community through care packages, clothing and blanket drives, food donations, and other necessities.
We also hosted community baby showers for new and expecting moms providing diapers, wipes, baby items, resources, vendors, and a day of celebration.
We partnered with organizations like the Ronald McDonald House, bringing youth and community members together to create and donate items for children and families. We also supported smaller local organizations and their community efforts.
Eventually, we realized we wanted to pour even more into OUR YOUTH.💚
That’s when our Youth Day celebrations began bringing together youth, families, performers, vendors, food trucks, community organizations, and more!
Looking back, I realize the mission was always there:
Community. Giving. Opportunity.
Our focus simply became more intentional.
Today, Lisha’s Helping Hands is centered around youth development, leadership development, community giving, and meaningful experiences for young people.
But we’ll always remember where we came from.
It all started with one simple question:
“How can we help?”
And we’re still answering that question today.
