When Americans suffer tragedies that impact whole communities, Hosea Helps is in a position to mobilize resources and respond.
First Responder
We’re in a position to make contact with local churches and charities on the scene, and get an understanding of their community’s most immediate needs, the degree of damage, the number of people estimated to be impacted, and their capacity to rebound. We open the lines of communication, and then develop a strategy to deploy products and human services.
Bringing a City Together
We are a central storage and shipping location for anyone in the City of Atlanta who wants to help. During the “Flint Michigan Water Crisis” we received, packaged and shipped over 500,000 pounds of water that was donated in cases by individuals all across the city who wanted to make a difference. When something happens in another city, we prove that Atlanta has heart.
Whether helping families in Atlanta after fire damage, or families in South Fulton after a flood, or in Alabama after a hurricane, Hosea Helps was able to participate in the larger relief effort to restore those communities. As a result, we have developed tools that can help local agencies track donated products, assess a family’s degree of instability, and identify trends in urgent needs.
Make a Donation
The Hosea Helps community has several really strong human services programs whose combined social impact not only reaches thousands of families who need help, but also provides opportunities to thousands of people who want to connect and make a difference. Throughout the year, we produce innovative human services programs that transform individual donations into a singular force against the suffering and instability experienced by families that have faced financial collapse.
We offer a wide range of volunteer opportunities, and you’ll know the exact social impact of your time and energy. We have opportunities for individuals and groups, businesses and schools, churches and civic organizations. We can accommodate up to 250 people at one time. We’re also a great place to complete those community service hours. If you have a group and would like to impact a particular community or attack a particular problem, we can customize a volunteer opportunity that allows you to achieve that.
