Tiny Hands Foundation

Tiny Hands Foundation The Tiny Hands Foundation was founded in 2001. Our foundation's core mission is to improve the quality of impoverished children in our community.

The Tiny Hands Foundation was founded in 2001 by Sarasota businessman Rod Khleif. Our foundation’s core mission is to improve the quality of life for impoverished children in our community. We promote an exchange of generosity and gratitude between the fortunate in our community and those who are in need. We are a small non-profit, we have no paid staff, pay no rent, and our minimal administrative

costs are paid for by our volunteers. Our foundation leads several annual charitable initiatives that have benefited more than 50,000 community children and families in need. The Back-to-School Backpack Brigade

Provides thousands of new backpacks filled with school supplies to community school children in need. The Teddy Bear Brigade

Provides thousands of teddy bears for community police department patrol cars to be given out by police officers to comfort children in distress. The Holiday Basket Brigade

Provides thousands of holiday gift baskets filled with food and Christmas toys to community children and families in need.

Provided hundreds more teddy bears to one of our local police departments. These bears travel in police officer vehicles so they could be given to children that are in a traumatic situation. That helps bridge the gap between the police department, and those children and helps comfort them.
