Business Plan
In the next 5 years, I see Helping Hands being expanded throughout Oklahoma to help those in need. I see more offices that will provide a place for individuals to get food, clothing, mental health, medical, and dental services. We vision building a community center for our youth and provide consistent mentoring. Although there are many deserving non-profits worth investing in, Helping Hands Community Foundation not only helps those in need but has been a place of healing for the community. Having a building to operate in has made us aware of how many community members want to give back. These community members are in poverty as well but have still felt a calling through watching Helping Hands to give back. We recently had an 80 year old gentleman come into our office wanting to meet us. As he held tears back telling us about his late wife who passed away two years ago and how she was a caregiver for those around her. He wanted to find the right place to donate her clothing. We provide a place for him to feel comfortable ¨letting her go." Another instance I can think of his a mom coming to donate cans of formula in honor of her son who had just passed away. He was only one month old. If we can be the vessel to provide hope to not only those in need but an entire community then I believe we are worth investing in.

Self Identified Competition
Our biggest competitors within our county are local churches. There is at least 2 churches in Lincoln County, Oklahoma that have a clothing closet and assistance with food. We are different from out competitors by having outdoor food pantries that are open 24/7 to the public with no requires, and by having a office that allows clients to come anytime to get the things they need including clothing, baby items, and household items. In addition to this we are the only organization in the county to offer a range of services including parenting, nutrition, and GED classes. We also provide transporation to those who need to get to services outside of our organization.
