The Big Hearts with Helping Hands of Arizona Organization is a IRS registered 501(c)3 non-profit organization. All contributions are tax deductible under our 501(c) 3 tax exempt code, along with section codes: 170, 2055, 2106, and/or 2522 of the Code.
Our mission is to:
Empower abused, neglected, developmentally disabled, pregnant teens and homeless children with housing and help with getting them the high school diploma education they rightfully deserve, support services, gardening and responsability through ranch type skills. This includes instructions in everyday life skills, responsibilities and animal therapy. These children benefit by learning different trades, that will enrich their lives and benefit them in the future.
The Big Hearts with Helping Hands of Arizona Organization is working on a housing program project dedicated to aiding in child safety housing. Our mission is to provide a secure resedence facility for abused, neglected, developmentally disabiled, pregnant teens and homeless children.
Child neglect and abuse is a 24 hour, 7 days a week occurrence. This problem has risen dramatically during our economic hardship. The children's ages range from newborns to high school students. Many of these abused and neglected children are also homeless, which increases the amount of teasing, abuse and bullying that many of these children suffer with daily.
The different types of abuse affects these children's ability to get the learning perspectives needed for a great education. They are not able to focus their attention in school, as well as children who have not been through a traumatizing experience. It leads to bullying and negative feelings, at no fault of their own.
Our goal is to drastically help provide a much needed housing facility for these children, reduce the incidences of child neglect and abuse. To achieve this goal, "Big Hearts with Helping Hands" would like to co-ordinate a facility to house these children, get them the high school diploma they rightfully deserve to have, help make our community a better place, while helping with the prevention and awareness efforts in the State Of Arizona. We sincerely feel our City of Challenges housing program will provide the much needed assistance to many neglected, abused, develpmentally disabled, pregnant teens and homeless children.

You can also find us by typing in the organization name. All handcrafted items can be mailed to us. Many children have enjoyed receiving the beautiful handcrafted items donated from out of state and out of country. These past volunteers made such beautiful items. The children have enjoyed their handcrafted holiday gifts.
Volunteers are needed, crocheters, knitters, plastic canvas, sewers, beaders and loom knitters to help us make the holiday gifts. We make handcrafted toys, baby items, afghans and much more. All of the items we make are given to the less fortuante children as December holiday gifts, birthday gifts for their friends and for surprise good deed gifts. We handcraft items all year long for various holidays. For Easter we make baskets and Bunnies and put Easter Baskets together. WIn the past, we had provided 150 colored eggs for the Easter Egg Hunt. We also have public picnics to feed the hungry. We do this several times a year. Our last occassions were on Memorial Weekend and Independance Day. We had supplied all of the food and fed who ever showed up to eat, at no charge. We like to promote and provide the benefits of handcrafted gifts, new and used donated items, public BBQ events to benefit the community, disaster relief, older RV's to provide shelter and running vehicles for people to get the children to the doctors appointments. The vehicle is also used to transport chidlren to special, privte and out of district schools. Our "City of Challenges" goal needs a lot of support, including vendors to rent space at our year round crafting fair events.
Volunteers are needed for our fundraisers, helping to make the handcrafted toys by crocheting, knitting, loom knitting and/or sewing. We are also listed under Disaster Relief, food boxes, disability rights advocates, along with many other various types of services to benefit the communities needs.
