17,000 Children Sleep Safely, Thanks to Az Helping Hands
Giving these kids a safe place to sleep, a personal space to lay down their heads and to dream of their future is the most vital part of our day-to-day services.
Helping Hands Join in Prayers for An Angel from the Navajo Nation!
The pandemic has wrought its horrors throughout the land. It has put everyone at risk and wreaked havoc on many lives. There is an angel who has devoted every ounce of energy to making lives better for the littlest children who have been victims and deserve better.
Our Community Shows Its Heart!
Many are looking forward to turning the calendar to 2021. This year has brought us challenges and issues we could never have imagined, and there are many reasons to want to put 2020 in the rearview mirror.

Giving Thanks, Even in the Midst of a Pandemic!
We all are well aware of how different 2020 has been – a pandemic, a contentious election, social unrest, the hottest summer on record – all of these have frayed everyone’s nerves. Even at Arizona Helping Hands, despite seeing every day the importance of our work providing basic needs to Arizona’s 14,000+ children in foster care, we’ve faced our share of challenges.
250+ Birthdays Celebrated Every Month — Even in a Pandemic!
1,823 – that’s the number of children in foster care whose birthdays have been made special already in 2020 by the Birthday Dreams program at Arizona Helping Hands. More than 250 boys and girls each month have received gifts and party packages, thanks to our efforts.
Back to School is Different This Year!
Back to School is different this year, but the end result is what is important. Once again, thousands of children will be served through our program. They will have the notebooks, paper, markers and more that will allow them to pick up their education, in whatever fashion it will take in 2020.
Safety First, a Crucial Matter for Foster Parents
In 2016, Arizona Helping Hands expanded our services to foster families to include the safety items needed to pass Arizona’s home inspection standards to become a licensed foster home.
You Can Never Know When You Might Need A Helping Hand!
I thought my friend Dale was coming to say hi and tour the Arizona Helping Hands facility where we provide essential needs to children in Arizona’s foster care system. It turned out that Dale and his wife Pam were not stopping in for a social visit, they were coming to access our assistance.
