Helping Hands Ending Hunger, Inc.

HHEH is a 501c3 nonprofit corporation established in 2016 with an inspired vision: to alleviate childhood food insecurity, reduce school food waste, encourage better educational outcomes, and shape a healthier world. HHEH's innovative, “Kids Helping Kids” program empowers student leaders to repurpose uneaten food from school meals and join hands with their communities to nurture food insecure families. Re-educating that food is medicine, not trash, is a primary focus. As a result of determined efforts measured to change existing policy, HHEH now offers the only program operating in Georgia which has been expressly reviewed and approved by the Dept. of Public Health and Dept. of Education/School Nutrition to rescue cold storage food (milk, cheese, yogurt, fruit, etc.) along with dry packaged foods and channel it to children when they need the most, over weekends and school breaks. A non-profit operating with strict food safety protocols, we remove the risk of liability for food donations under state and federal law. Moreover, with our unique student-led design, our program, once established in a school, requires minimal coordination from school staff and easily integrates into daily routines.
