ABOUT HELPING HANDS OF DFW INTERNATIONAL
Helping Hands of DFW International is a volunteer-driven nonprofit organization serving individuals and families throughout Fort Worth and surrounding communities. Our mission is to empower individuals and families facing hardship by providing compassionate support, essential resources, and pathways to self-sufficiency.
Through our food pantry, youth outreach initiatives, community workshops, and resource referral services, we help address immediate needs while working to create long-term opportunities for stability and success.
WHY YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS
Many families in our community struggle with food insecurity, housing instability, financial hardship, and limited access to essential resources. Rising costs continue to place additional pressure on households already facing difficult circumstances.
Helping Hands of DFW International exists to bridge these gaps by providing practical support and connecting individuals and families to resources that improve quality of life. Your gift helps provide food, school supplies, educational workshops, and other essential resources to individuals and families in our community.
Last year, community volunteers contributed more than $45,000 worth of donated time and service to support our programs and outreach efforts. Their commitment allows us to maximize every dollar received and direct resources where they are needed most.
Our 2026 North Texas Giving Day goal is to raise $7,500 to support programs that strengthen families and improve the quality of life throughout our community.
Funds raised will help support:
• $3,500 – Food Pantry Support
• $2,000 – Youth Explosion: Backpack Giveaway
• $1,250 – Community Workshops & Resource Events
• $750 – Volunteer Recruitment, Training & Outreach
Every day, we meet individuals and families facing unexpected challenges. Whether it is a senior citizen choosing between groceries and medication, a parent struggling to provide school supplies for their child, or a family experiencing financial hardship, Helping Hands of DFW International works to ensure that no one faces these challenges alone.
Your gift helps provide food, school supplies, educational workshops, and other essential resources to individuals and families in our community.

Empowering Individuals. Strengthening Families. Transforming Communities.
Helping Hands of DFW International is committed to fostering an inclusive and equitable community where every individual is treated with dignity, respect, and compassion.
