Whether you are interested in collecting or sorting food, packing Backpacks or staffing a special event, Many Hands offers many opportunities for individuals, families, schools, corporate groups or other organizations to volunteers.
Check out the events that are benefiting Many Hands in your community and see how you can get involved! First annual ALL FEET NO HANDS 5k in September 2012!!
  After many years of consideration and planning, families within the Ingham County community made Many Hands possible. Having a strong desire to lead by example, for their own children and seeing the need for help in our community, Many Hands was formed. We want to excite and motivate others to give back and create a community of caring. We aim to grow by involving individuals, churches, schools, business, civic organizations and service clubs.Our focus will be ELIMINATING HUNGER among Elementary-age youth within our community. Starting in the Fall of 2012, we will work with other local organizations to support their work fighting hunger and develop a Backpack / Weekend Survival Kit food program for communities currently and not yet involved, focusing in Ingham County. |
