Hands4Hope - Youth Making a Difference

We are a non-profit, youth driven, outreach organization based in Northern California. We create opportunities for youth to identify areas of need in their communities where they can make a difference and have a positive impact. We aim to cultivate the next generation of socially responsible citizens. To empower youth to make a positive difference in the world around them through Exploration, Action and Leadership. We are led by a Youth Board who is mentored by a Parent Advisory Council. Our primary objective is to show and teach youth how they can make a difference in their communities. Because our programs include both service and service learning, we give youth of all ages the power to decide their level of involvement, from hands-on community service, joining a school club or team or lead a committee. All of which they will have eye-openning experiences that inspire compassion and strengthen life skills. We are driven by the interest and focus of youth involved. All projects serve those in a special needs category - homeless, low income, trafficked, bullied, military, victims of a natrural disaster, etc. Our focus is within El Dorado and Sacramento Counties.
