A Hand Up International Inc. GOM

A Hand Up International Inc. GOM A Faith-Based, Non-Profit Ministry We felt a calling to do more for the families in Bay County. As a result of that, A Hand Up International, Inc. was formed.

Working in a local high-poverty elementary school, we saw a tremendous increase in the number of families needing various types of assistance, particularly food. Some were single parent homes, some were two parent homes and even multiple families having to move in together just to make ends meet. A Hand Up is a Non-Profit Organization, As its name indicates, we will provide A Hand Up to local fami

lies. We are not a WELFARE Agency! Our purpose is to provide A Hand Up to help bridge the gap between resources and need. We are not interested in enabling people that have no desire to change their situation or to help themselves. The sad reality is that the face of poverty and homelessness has changed. We as a community must acknowledge that and take measures to strengthen people to help themselves. At A Hand Up, we are serving people and families in a way that is positive and restores dignity to a process that can be very embarrassing and humiliating. For the hard working men or women that suddenly finds themselves on the other side of the table, having to ask for assistance to take care of their families, or even make the leap to ask for food, can be very overwhelming. That’s why we always make it known, that we are giving them A Hand Up, NOT a hand out. There’s a clear difference!

We want to take a moment to give a heartfelt THANK YOU to the Chaudry family with Solera Homes for sponsoring our March food drive 🙌🏽

Because of your generosity and partnership, we were able to serve 305 families this past weekend at our county food drive. That’s 305 households impacted, meals on tables, and hope extended throughout our community.

We don’t take that lightly.
It’s because of sponsors like you that we’re able to continue showing up month after month and making a real difference.

💛 To others in our community business owners, families, and organizations, this is your invitation.

If you’ve ever wanted to give back in a meaningful way, sponsoring one of our upcoming monthly food drives is a powerful opportunity to directly impact hundreds of families right here in our county.

Let’s continue to be the hands and feet of Christ that serve.

If you’re interested in sponsoring a future month, reach out to us we’d love to partner with you.
