Hands4Hope Homeless Committee partners with Social Venture Partners (SVP) Kids of Sacramento


Social Venture Partners of Sacramento partnered with our Homeless Committee for the January Hands4Hope Homeless Outreach.  Together, the youth and adult volunteers from both organizations, made and passed out 500 sack lunches, along with toiletries, to the clients of Sacramento Loaves and Fishes.   Before the distribution, Sister Libby Fernandez took the youth on a tour of the L&F Dining Hall, which was an enlightening experience for all.  Both SVP and H4H members had a great experience working together to brighten the day of some of the homeless population in Sacramento.  

In a recent review of the outreach on their website, SVP says they "can’t wait to have the opportunity to work alongside Hands4Hope again in the future.  They truly are making a difference and teaching their youth that it is NEVER too soon to start a habit of giving back!"  (Read more at http://www.svpsacramento.org/svp-kids-volunteer-with-hands4hope/)
