Helping Hands

Crisis doesn’t make appointments. Whether it comes as a storm, an illness or the relentless weight of poverty,
it just shows up. And so do we. Helping Hands is La Red’s response to urgent human needs.

Feeding Program

Regular distributions of groceries and essential supplies for the elderly, widows, the sick and the unemployed as respectful support in seasons of scarcity.

When agricultural work stops or seasonal rains cut off access to daily wages, food insecurity strikes first. We deliver hearty, nutrient-rich food packages directly to household doorsteps with dignity and care.

🌾 Dignified Compassion: We involve local community leaders to identify and serve families in greatest need.
Pediatric medical care and checkups for children
Pediatric consultations and preventative screenings brought directly to underserved neighborhoods.

Health Campaigns

Pediatric medical teams bring checkups, diagnosis, treatment and follow-up care to children who would otherwise go without.

We also distribute water filters, because clean water is the foundation of good health. By removing 99.9% of biological contaminants, these simple gravity filters eliminate chronic stomach illnesses and give families a dependable source of safe drinking water.

💧 Clean Water & Healing: We partner with expert organizations such as Extra Mile Pediatrics and Surfing Servants to provide free pediatric exams and water filters.

Housing Program

For too many families, a leaking roof or a dirt floor that floods is simply life. We repair damaged homes, reinforce vulnerable structures and, when needed, build new ones, bringing safety, stability and dignity.
