About Hands of Hope

A student-led movement dedicated to empowering youth through service and making a lasting impact on our homeless community.

What We Do

Hands of Hope is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit fiscally sponsored by Hack Club. We are a student-led organization focused on supporting the homeless community through in-person volunteer efforts, fundraising, and expanding our reach through partnerships with high schools.

We organize regular volunteer opportunities at local shelters and community centers to provide direct support to those in need.

School Partnerships
