We are reaching more in need in Sacramento’s Homeless community

We have revamped our Sacramento Homeless Outreach so that it will touch even more lives...at least 500 people living on the streets or lacking access to sufficient food!  

We have partnered with Loaves and Fishes to serve those in need. Loaves and Fishes serves between 400-600 homeless people every day.  Hands4Hope volunteers will make and provide 500 take-away meals, including sandwiches, fruit, snacks, as well as toiletries and other needed items to pass out as the clients leave the dining hall.  Many of these people only get one meal a day, so providing them with extra food will no doubt be appreciated!  We are very excited to begin working with Sister Libby at Loaves and Fishes to serve these men, women, and children seeking survival services.

We are partnering with Loaves and Fishes going forward as a result of new guidelines implemented by the City of Sacramento that require organizations serving meals to partner with an established agency that provides a full range of services.Through this partnership, we are able to reach more of the homeless community on a consistent basis.

Loaves and Fishes was founded in 1983 and is a private charity located in Sacramento.  It is not a government funded program. Loaves and Fishes is run entirely on private funding and provides 15  survival services such as medical clinic, advocacy, meals, wash house, just to name a few.  Sister Libby, the executive director, and her staff work tirelessly to serve each person with compassion and without judgment.
