Caring Hands Response Fund

This Fund is used to quickly help our Great Valley Community and Families cope with a sudden crisis. In the past, we've assisted families that lost their homes in fires, the untimely death of a parent or some other catastrophic event befallen on a community member. Caring Hands also supports Seniors in our area, raises funds and food for the local food bank, donates gift cards for needy families and other local causes that benefit from our help. Your continued support throughout the year is greatly appreciated.
