We’re so grateful for all of the support at our 39th Annual Golf Outing! From impressive shots on the course to great conversations off it, the day was filled with fun to support those we serve.

Thanks to your generosity, the funds raised will support our expansion initiative, allowing more children to benefit from our Outpatient Clinic and School. This growth means more kids will receive the care and education they need to thrive.

A heartfelt thank-you to our volunteers, sponsors, and Golf Outing committee for the time, energy, and dedication that made this event possible.

We’re truly grateful for your commitment to keep moving our mission forward and can’t wait to keep you updated as this exciting project comes to life!

Thanks to the incredible generosity and support of our community, our 26th Annual Gala: An Evening of Transformation was a tremendous success—we’re thrilled to share that together we raised over $395,000 in support of our mission!

Whether you attended the event, donated, supported us on from afar, or have supported us throughout the years – we want to say thank you.

Throughout the evening, we experienced powerful mission moments shared by our clients, students, and their families. Their voices reminded us of the real, lasting impact your support makes possible every day.

Thank you for helping us continue to move our mission forward!

We moved our mission through the community on October 20th at our third annual Move with HH walk fundraiser. It was the perfect fall morning and we were thrilled to see so many HH friends, families, and team members out to raise awareness and connect with each other.

We are excited to announce that we raised over $46,000 from this event that will benefit our programs and services!

Thank you ALL again for your support in making our third annual Move with HH event a success! We look forward to seeing you again next fall!
