Caring Compassionate Hearts & Helping Hands, Inc. (2C3H), exits to serve the unhoused, unsheltered and the less fortunate. We believe ministry and service begins in the heart. Our mantra is “Feel a Need… Fill a Need. We simply exist to share the message of Jesus Christ one full belly at a time. We stand on the scripture in Matthew 9:36…When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless…
Our Mission is to be moved with compassion and offer the hands and help needed to alleviate the suffering of the hurting, the overlooked, the forgotten, and the lost.
2C3H is all about being Active in Missions—locally and abroad. We seek to reach out to those who suffer spiritually, emotionally, and physically. We currently have ongoing feeding programs in Kenya Africa, and have adopted a special needs home there to support with food. We have donated two wheelchairs to help with mobility-impaired children. Our domestic cities of service include Dallas, Fort Worth, Grand Prairie, and surrounding areas, and Texarkana.
Since its origin, Caring Compassionate Hearts & Helping Hands has prepared, distributed, and or sponsored almost 100,000 meals. We partner with various non-profit organizations.
Where we are today. Caring Compassionate Hearts & Helping Hands typically serves 200-400 meals weekly. We travel to various homeless encampments, under bridges, and on the streets. We go where the people are, behind buildings and behind dumpsters. We take out essentials: food, water, hygiene, coats, blankets, tents, sleeping bags. We are so blessed to work alongside great non-profits, groups, and individual donors and supporters that make sure we have needed resources.
We have a God-given action item—to open our hands and give to those in need. We try to be sensitive to their needs and serve them with dignity. We understand may not be able to fully eradicate homelessness, but we can do our best to try.
It takes a lot of support from partners to achieve our mission. A huge part of our success is aligning ourselves with those who share our passion and commitment. So, I say to the one reading this, you are an important part of making our mission sustainable and successful.
