TRIP ACROSS AMERICA DELAYED BECAUSE OF NEEDS IN NORTH CAROLINA

Good Afternoon!

Help!ComeHome! is presently doing our yearly undertaking of going across The US helping out our American Family in Jesus Name.We had set an Agenda for New Jersey, Ohio, Michigan, Virginia, Florida, and Kentucky, Texas, New Mexico, and California... But due to the state of emergency in North Carolina we are going to stop our mapped plan and head there to help fellow charities to bring Love,and whatever items and funds we can help with.We did make it to Ohio, Kentucky, and most importantly, to Flint Michigan to help out with the Water Crisis... The Fight Continues... Amen...

Travels on the East Coast

Good Afternoon!

As The Charity travels, we see more and more with every passing hour, day, week, and year how big America truly is and the Need of its people. That's why in various states, we not only partner with other non-profits in the fight to help our Citizens in need, but we also have Meet and Greets at The Health and Human Services in many towns to Continually let them know we are here in Jesus Name to help. We just finished introducing HCH to visiting several offices! Among them were Germantown, Maryland; Frederick ,Virginia; Spotsylvania, Virginia; Raleigh, North Carolina; Florence, South Carolina; and Milford,  Connecticut. (Pictured are Natiea Harding from the Frederick Gov't Services Center and Marolyn Blackman From The DH and HS Offices in Germantown Maryland). Great Thanks To Mirtha Brown and The Whole Team at The Montgomery County Offices in North Carolina there, as they truly have their work cut out for them as do so many other offices Nationwide... God Bless and Be Safe...

Water Project Update

Good Evening!
For more than a few years now HCH has been working aggressively on an ongoing program known as The Water Project. One of its aims is to bring water to Americans who no longer have good water sources. As you can now see, finding and getting clean water is becoming as rare as finding gold. For some who cannot get this once free, clean resource which God gave for our very survival, it could mean illness or, God forbid, death. Every year we try to help other non-profits to bring water to the victims of chemical wastes and fracking. It is such a large undertaking and has no apparent end. In the next months ahead, we will not only make water deliveries, but we will also be distributing Water Straws, which are a magnificent invention. They actually filter the water as you sip, and just 2 per household could save an entire family's life. If you have a little extra, give a donation of water to your local charity along with food and clothing... your actions will sincerely dry the tearful, weary eyes of someone somewhere in Our Great Land we call Home. Thank you and God Bless...

Honoring America's Seniors!

Good Afternoon,

America is a very big place as we all know and has a wide variety of Beloved citizens who were born and raised here at home as well from Abroad. Among the greatest of them are Our Senior Citizens. Some of them fought for all of our Freedoms,were True Farmers and Laborers that did just fine without Technology, Knew what raising a True Family was all about and Wisely raising children,and above all Had A Beautiful Code Of Moral Conduct Under God that Truly Taught How Humans are Supposed to Treat One Another. Help!ComeHome! often visits The Seniors here in New England as well as Abroad and I pray that if anyone reading this should have any free time,please stop and visit Our Beautiful Seniors....Bring some flowers and let them know they are greatly loved! They have amazing stories to share! Take Care and God Bless....(Volunteers on a Cruise with The Seniors}

HCH's Semi-annual Diaper Drive

Help!ComeHome! recently partnered with organizations in Massachusetts and New Hampshire to carry out its semi-annual diaper drive, great thanks in part to the contributions of generous donors at the Kingston Fair earlier this month! Help!ComeHome! volunteers distributed diapers to various organizations in the Northeast, including Operation Blessing in Portsmouth, NH and Salvation Army centers in Middlesex and Rockingham Counties. All of these organizations do a great solemn work nationwide and are worthy of any donations anyone can give.

THE CHARITY'S WORK IN NY BOROUGHS!

Good Afternoon America!

HelpComeHome! partners and works with many Non Profits across the Nation, and most recently we worked with NewYorkCares. It is the largest Charity in NY, working to help all 5 boroughs to be able to more fully aid those in need. This journey took us to the areas of Queens, Brooklyn, and Manhattan. The poorer areas cannot afford park custodians, so NYCares enlists the aid of other Non Profits and Individuals to help make these areas a better place for families to come with their children and seniors. We also helped out many Homeless with food, water, and in some cases, monetary aid. Great and Loving Thanks to all The Volunteers that rallied for This Gracious Cause from Maine, New Hampshire, New York and New Jersey!!! (Pictured Kevin Murphy, Allen Ramsay, Alice D Richardson, Keri Gauthier, Mark Shelton, Nancy Bardsley, Darla Gould, Coleen E Mayo, Angela Risden, and Antonio Peppers... Lynn Nicholas stepped away lol) Those who joined us later were fellow Boardmembers Renee Anderson (and her wonderful husband Leon=-) ) and Sarah Cooper, and Michael De La Cruise.

BITTER SWEET MEMORIES FROM COSTA RICA!

Chairwoman and Board Member's Journey To Costa Rica!

Good Evening,

As many people know, myself and another Board member, Mark Shelton from HCH, traveled on a relief mission with The Apopka Ministries out of Central Florida to Costa Rica. This organization for 16 years has brought not only The Message of Jesus to this area, but has also helped the communities here build homes and put food on their tables and clothes on their backs. Needless to say, the journey has been a very great Blessing - but not without heartbreaking tears and sorrow for these beautiful people. I was recently invited to come to their church. No one was in fancy robes or in a fancy building performing ceremonies with pomp and circumstance... But I did see a humble open structure, with some wooden benches and a pulpit. I also witnessed very loving beautiful people who Honor Commandment Number 4, having a wonderful and amazing service! Those lucky enough to have a Bible shared with the person next to them. I never felt so much brotherly kindness and love coming from those who basically live with little or nothing. It was truly Heart-moving.........

Take Care and God Bless!

As everyone knows, The NH Seacoast Area has many wonderful non profits and they have helped countless weary souls... but one gap that will never be filled is the feeding of families in need...

Keeping Kids Safe: Portland, Maine

Good Afternoon!
Recently Help!ComeHome! attended a very special event in Portland, Maine hosted by one of the most important nonprofits in America. It's called Keeping Kids Safe. Its founding member is Mr. Michael O'Neal. He is a law enforcement veteran who witnessed not only the old, familiar dangers that kids and teens face, but also a new, clear, and present danger that is claiming our kids’ attention, sound reason, and unfortunately many of their lives. The unwitting enemy? Technology. This nonprofit brings forth the most excellent programs to help both parents and kids to fully understand how to protect themselves from all clear and present dangers that exist in our society today via technology. Co-hosting the evening with the same purpose was the organization Ridin Steel’s Bikers Against Bullying. Please, parents, look up these two nonprofits. The information they have may one day save your child's life! (Pictured below: HCH Chairperson Alison Mayo; Founder of KKS Michael O'Neal; and Kevin Murphy, HCH Field Tech.)

Take Care and God Bless!

New England 2016!

Good Evening!

Help!ComeHome! has hit the ground running in this new year with various projects focusing on New England. Thanks to the generosity of the citizens of the Seacoast, we are now able this week to make substantial diaper deliveries to local shelters. Recently, we were able to make a special delivery to a South Boston non-profit. Last year, when bringing them food, they said they could really use diapers. They were the reason for starting the project. Also, we have been in Northern Maine to bring food baskets to those who live in rural areas. This undertaking is still ongoing. A warm thanks to Shaws and Walmart of Elsworth Maine who gave their support in our endeavors, in the fight against hunger. We also visit those who are down trodden in hospitals. Recently we went to Beth Israel Hospital to visit and aid someone in the Psychiatric Ward after a call to HCH came in asking for help. Please remember to aid your local non-profits as behind the scenes, they have given countless souls a reason to hope and have turned many tears into smiles... God Bless and Be Safe... (pictured in album: Dedicated worker Olive Fagan at SA Social Services, Mark Shelton and Allen Ramsay of HCH, and The Gracious Pastor of The Church of The Nazarene in Elsworth Maine who aided us in distributing a portion of the baskets in Jesus' Name.)
