Welcome to the Many Hands Community!
Our Mission:
Many Hands Community creates educational settings in which we nurture children and families through community spirit, personal empowerment and connection with the land, while fostering a culture of acceptance.
Many Hands Community is a dynamic not-for-profit organization. It is an intimate collaboration between local non-profit organizations, each with their own mission, and brought together under a united goal. The Many Hands Community is a land stewardship program designed to rent out the land & facilities to interested parties & create revenue that will then support the Many Hands Educational Community Center.
