Our mission is to engage, empower, and transform our community through volunteer service.
Realizing the power that volunteers have to make a true impact in New Orleans, we have led an effort to revitalize our neighborhoods and create a more vibrant community through high impact service projects.
How we do it
We create and manage service projects relating to public school revitalization, youth recreation, neighborhood development, urban gardening and environmental restoration, blight reduction, and disaster management. We also serve as a “one stop shop” volunteer center for small teams or individuals who want to support other local nonprofits in the area.
“Over the course of four days, HandsOn volunteers managed to restore a sense of pride to our neighborhood and brought beauty to our preschool campus”
