| Maria's Children | www.mariaschildren.com |
| Everywhere on the planet children live in compromised and difficult circumstances. The projects of Maria's Children International use the arts as an initial connector with these children, which then opens them to their creativity and strengthens the knowledge of their unique self worth and abilities. It is our mission to create and support avenues for the forgotten children of the world to grow into healthy, happy, contributing adults in their own societies. | |
| Sharing and Caring Hands | www.sharingandcaringhands.org |
| Sharing and Caring Hands was established to be a bridge from the caring concerned community to the people in need of their help. We receive no government or United Way funding and rely solely on donations to do our work. Every year, the donations of goods, services, time, and money by thousands of people allow Sharing and Caring Hands to make a difference in the lives of individuals, families, and children in need. |
Open hearts, Open minds, Open doors.
