Get rid of the stuff that’s cluttering your home to free space for spring’s new arrivals. The stuff you no longer need will be used to generate funds for disadvantaged single parent families whom Enlightened Helping Hand Foundation helps with food, clothing, household items and workshops that prepare unemployed and under-employed single parents for steady, decent jobs.

Collection Drive To Benefit Single Parent Families in Need will take place on Monday, March 11th 2013 starting at 7 am. Enlightened Helping Hand Foundation (a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization) will be on Mulholland Drive (from Beverly Hills to Woodland Hills) collecting:

•    used office equipment
•    used cell phones
•    used electronics
•    clothing and shoes
•    furniture
•    toys and books

If you’ve been a single parent or have been raised by a single parent you know that it takes a HERO to be both a parent AND a sole provider. Clean up your Mulholland Drive home AND change lives of single parent families in need!

If you prefer to drop off your donation at EHHF’s Donation Center (at 12128 Vanowen Street in N. Hollywood ), it is open daily.

If you’d like to become a contributing member or sponsor of Enlightened Helping Hand Foundation, please contact us by e-mail or call us at 818-503-7775.

EHHF To Welcome More Single Parents in Need

With the holiday season behind us, Enlightened Helping Hand Foundation is plunging into a whirlwind of activities. This coming Saturday (01/19/13) we’ll hold a meeting for 30 disadvantaged single parent families to determine the eligibility and specific needs of each. (Some of the families will benefit from our kitchen essentials and accessories give-away in late January.)

Single parents who are currently jobless or under-employed shoulder more responsibilities and face more fears than married parents in the same situation. As single parents, they’re usually also sole providers. It’s essential to elevate some of the pressure they’re under and help them get back on their feet.

We’re grateful to the sponsors of the upcoming get-together. Our thanks go to:

who have pledged to make the planned meeting warm and hospitable by providing foods and drinks.
All three are well-known and popular brands, their willingness to support our cause further highlights their positive impact on the communities they serve. (We’re certain that their generosity won’t go unnoticed!)

This is the first of a series of meetings which will help EHHF focus its efforts on particular recipients and their needs during the year.

In its “spare time”, Enlightened Helping Hand Foundation builds productive alliances, plans its next collection drive and – of course! – work on programs and events for 2013 is in the works. As a matter of fact it will be announced on our blog, next month….
