Greater Columbus Community Helping Hands, Inc.

Founded in 2006 as a non-profit 501©3 tax exempt organization, the Greater Columbus Community Helping Hands Inc. (GCCHH) is a group of volunteers committed to service, programs and activities which enhance youth educational opportunities and self-esteem. Helping Hands promotes community activities that build harmony among people. In partnership with the Cage Family Scholarship Fund, GCCHH provides college scholarships for books and related school expenses, “a helping hand” to students from low to moderate income households. We also honor local citizens who serve as outstanding role models and mentors in our community.

Special emphasis is placed on the African-American male, economically and socially challenged students who need assistance. GCCHH board members and volunteers serve as mentors, establish positive relationships and give support through programs, projects and workshops. We provide ‘soft skills’ to help students become better young adults and excel as they pursue their education and career goals. Through our partnership with you, we provide ‘helping hands’ to make a difference as we work with one person at a time to bring courage, strength and dignity to the student.
