Helping Hands Hawai‘i®

Helping Hands Hawai‘i® was officially incorporated in 1974 and evolved from the establishment of the Honolulu Council of Social Agencies’ Volunteer Placement Bureau in 1941. With a mission to connect individuals, families, and organizations with essential human and material resources, Helping Hands Hawai‘i® continues today to provide a vital lifeline for our local community – Helping its members to help one another.

Our agency prides itself upon being one of the most cost-efficient and effective non-profit organizations in the State. Through our strong partnerships with local social service providers and innovative approaches to service-delivery, Helping Hands Hawai‘i® keeps our administrative and overhead costs low to ensure that the majority of agency funding is dedicated towards direct service delivery for those individuals and families that need our help the most.

It is the mission of Helping Hands Hawai‘i® to provide critical social services to improve people’s quality of life and empower them on their path to a better tomorrow.
