Make a gift to Operation Helping Hands

 
Operation Helping Hands, a partnership between The Miami Herald/el Nuevo Herald and United Way of Miami-Dade, was established to provide South Florida residents with a way to reach out and help their neighbors in need following a disaster or humanitarian crisis.

In our consistent effort to provide financial stability to earnest individuals, we are now finding more and more people reaching out who never needed help before.  For ordinary people who faced tough choices before, these choices are now extraordinarily difficult. Imagine having to choose between childcare for a growing infant and care giving for an aging parent, between keeping the lights on and a roof over your head, between filling a prescription and filling a grocery cart.

United Way and The Miami Herald/el Nuevo Herald are activating Operation Helping Hands to assist individuals and families who are struggling due to the current economic challenges. One hundred percent of all contributions to Operation Helping Hands will go to will go to support job training, food, rent, health care and financial counseling services.
