About us
At Hands4Hope - Youth Making A Difference, our mission is to inspire and empower youth in leadership and service.
We do this by giving youth a platform to make their voices heard on issues affecting our community and provide them the opportunity to take action in their own way. Our primary objective is to enable youth to make a difference in their communities and offer meaningful community service projects combined with instruction and reflection, school-based clubs, and diverse leadership opportunities. Youth are able to decide their own level of involvement.

My comfort zone was absolutely broadened, and I became more comfortable as I built relationships with the individuals we were serving, as well as my fellow volunteers.
Through my experiences with Hands4Hope - Youth Making A Difference, I can show other youth that sometimes a person might not know what they want or what is best for them. All it took was the guidance of my parents and another individual (Jennifer Bassett) for me to acknowledge my strengths and to show me what I am capable of accomplishing. They deserve the credit for my achievements during my time with Hands4Hope - Youth Making A Difference .
