Get to Know Us.

Lend a Hand is about people!

People who believe that families living in poverty should not have to go hungry, that no one should have to be on the street when they are tired or sick or cold, that youth who have no home should not have to live in fear and danger.
Lend a Hand is a non-profit organization and we believe children are the most amazing people on earth—and that drives us to do everything we can do to live up to the privilege of caring for them.
Passionate and generous people who say with our founder, Lawrence Petrie, “I am a human being. Part of my job, part of being alive, is making sure that other people are too.”
