That Help (HTH) is a women’s giving circle
committed to dramatically improving lives
throughout Hancock County by collectively
funding significant grants to charitable
projects and programs. Every membership dollar
donated by HTH Giving Circle members is passed
directly on to the community through grants
voted on by the members. In the last two years,
HTH granted $105,742 to six local nonprofit
organizations.
All women are invited to participate in HTH. An
annual contribution of $500 for your membership
entitles you to one vote as to how the money
will be granted. Joint memberships of 2-5 women
are also available. Select the Handbags That
Help menu button on the left side of this page

Lessons Learned: A Response to Flood Recovery
The
Community Foundation, in partnership with the

Learned: A Response to Flood Recovery.” This
document will serve to preserve history,
increase community awareness, improve response
in the event of future disasters, encourage
preventative measures and provide guidance to
other communities who may experience a similar
disaster.
