Homelessness has risen to epidemic proportions in the United States.  In January 2020, I founded Kary's Helping Hand, a 501(c) 3 nonprofit.

We believe each and every person has value and deserves to be treated with dignity, respect, kindness and compassion.

Our goal is to help every individual make the brave choice to ask for help and leave the streets behind.  We build relationships with those we reach out to, encouraging them to seek shelter when possible.

Each month, we visit an area in San Diego where homeless individuals are know to congregate.  Our team of volunteers offers home-cooked meals, something we would serve our own families, at our community outreach events. We also distribute gently used clothing, hygiene products, blankets, jackets, socks, and other needed items. Every dollar donated goes to serve individuals in need.

We extend a hand up, not a handout!
