About this Event
The Mission was founded in 1965 by Reverend J.A. Gaines, his wife, Reverend Rose Marie Gaines, and her mother, Florence E. Meringola. After witnessing local poverty conditions firsthand, they invested everything that they had with the view that if they could help even one person it was worth the investment. They worked very hard and sacrificed much to build a strong community and leave a great legacy to be carried on. Their prayer was the HHRM will remain a "lighthouse" in our community. We are a church organization and subordinate to The Full Gospel Fellowship of Churches & Ministers International.
58 years later our work continues under the direction of the founders’ daughter, Rev. Kimberly Gaines-Gambino who functions as the President/Pastor of Helping Hand Rescue Mission.
On Friday, July 19th, Grassi volunteers will participate at HHRM to:
- Sort through donated food
