Many many thanks!!!

Hello and Happy Monday! We have some AMAZING news to share with all of you! About a year ago, we were approached by the Presbyterian Women of Grace Presbyterian Church about applying for a grant to help programs such as ours in the Jefferson County area. It seemed like a long shot, but the thought was that if we team up with area programs such as ours, then maybe we would stand a chance of bein...g recognized to receive funds through the national Presbyterian Women group. After a year of research, writing, and collaborating with organizations like ours in the Jefferson County area, we have been notified that we will be awarded a grant in the amount of $15,000 to help feed area children on the weekends!!! PRAISE GOD and the many blessings He bestows upon us! Programs like Helping Hands have touched the hearts of people in this community, particularly the Women of Grace Presbyterian Church, and they've taken a stand against childhood hunger in our community. There are over 500 children in Jefferson County who are receiving assistance from programs like Helping Hands, and all of these programs are supported by the grace of the people of the community. No budgets, no official funding, just a community of people who won't allow our kids to go hungry. This $15,000 grant will be spread amongst the programs in Jefferson County, and are a huge blessing in ensuring we can continue our program in the 2013-2014 school year. Thank you all so much for your continued support!
