The Hands of Support Foundation will take any opportunity to help anybody in need. We believe it is about the action, not the fruit of the action that is important. You have to do the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. However, if you do nothing, there will be no result.
Poverty can be found citywide, statewide, nationally and globally. Poverty can develop in the smallest or most unexpected locations — familiar places, not simply in distant third world countries separated from the cozy upper-middle-class Western lifestyle. This is a global issue that must be dealt with by the international community. Some efforts are being made to that effect, but not enough.
