Planning for the next few months

The Fund Raising Committee met recently to decide on some events that we will participate in and we have come up with four. While that in itself may not sound exciting, we are looking forward to developing those plans, including a Car Wash if the weather holds off on a weekend, and some indoor events planned by the City of Grand Prairie. All of our activities need extra help, so if you can even sit in a chair and talk, you would be welcome. We will probably have some short training sessions from time to time so everyone is more informed about our ministry.

We are always looking for extra hands to go with us to a local nursing home near Belt Line and Small Hill. We need people to just go and smile, walk around and talk to people, maybe sing, for sure have fun and bring some joy into the lives of those who may not have family or friends left. We know the residents are happy to see us.

Call if you would like to join us sometime.

Not Enough to Do in Your Life?

Need a purpose driven life? What do you enjoy doing most? LAHH, Inc. has several different areas that we are seeking volunteers to be active in.


One group goes to a nursing home on Saturdays to reach out and touch those who sometimes have no family or friends. A physical touch on their hand or shoulder, even a smile will often brighten the life of one of those seemingly forgotten people. You could make a difference.


If you have free time - or even time that you have to squeeze out - and you want to make a difference in the lives of others, let us know. Call the home office of Lanny Ford, President of Lend A Helping Hand, Inc. He, wife Nell or son Tim will be delighted to talk to you to see if this is where you would like to volunteer. 214-235-0255 e:mail: LendAHelpingHand2006@yahoo.com


There are other areas where help is needed, call to find out. We always need volunteers.
