Little Hands Doing Big Things Program

Our Little Hands Doing Big Things program is designed for children 12 and under who want to make a positive impact in their community. Through age-appropriate volunteer opportunities, kids can learn the value of kindness, compassion, and giving back.

Monthly Volunteer Projects
Each month, our youth volunteers take on a new project to support individuals, families, and organizations in need. Here's what we have planned throughout the year:

  • January: Snow Days at the nursing home and Hope Lodge

  • February-April: 100 Days of Kindness

  • May: Service Project

  • June: Service Project

  • July: Lemonade Stands (sponsored by Chick-Fil-A Eastwood Village)

  • August: Service Project

  • September: Comfort Toys Service Project

  • October: Trick or Treat So Others Can Eat

  • November: Thanksgiving Service Project

  • December: Christmas Service Project

If you're interested in helping your child develop a heart for service, contact Kelly Varnado below to learn more about upcoming opportunities.

UPCOMING EVENTS
July: Lemonade Stands

This July, Heidi’s Kids is excited to offer lemonade stand kits for children eager to make a difference in their community! Each child can choose a day and location to host their stand during the month, with all essential supplies provided—just bring a table and some ice!

The child with the most successful stand will receive a $50 gift card and a prize basket, and all participants will be featured on our social media pages.

Every dollar raised will support Heidi’s Kids and our mission to assist local children in need.

Remember, no child is too small to make a big difference!
