About Us

    Helping Hands of Ennis is a Christ-centered, community-based organization that gives a hand up to families and individuals suffering a time of crisis imposed by an event or situation beyond their immediate control. Our intention is to show to the world the physical acts of mercy as instructed by Our Lord, and Savior, Jesus Christ.  In the practical application of scripture, we use our common sense to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, give water to the thirsty, and welcome the stranger.

Our Status

    We are a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization registered with the IRS since 1988. In addition to this status, we are a Texas non-profit corporation. Our affiliation with the United Way of Ennis allows us to serve our community to our full capacity. HHE is a member in good standing with the Local Independent Charities, Center for Non-profit Management of Dallas, and the Volunteer Center of North Texas.

Awards

    Helping Hands recently has received several prestigious awards and commendations including: One of the Best Charities in America by Independent Charities of America, and a Model Agency of the Year designation by the North Texas Food Bank.
