As a not-for-profit organization, HSP’s reason for being is service pursuant to our mission, and that service is administered through five different programs addressing different aspects of the mission, to alleviate the suffering inflicted by poverty. Two serve children alone (Children’s Birthday Project and the School Supply Drive); one serves seniors alone (Senior Citizen Project); one serves children and through them, families (Feed the Kids); and the last serves them all (Christmas Offering).
