Connie

An older woman with short, light hair stands in front of a plain white background, wearing a light gray sweatshirt with a “Training BP Carson” logo printed in blue. She looks directly at the camera with a neutral expression.

Connie can breathe again after wildfires damaged her home.

After being evacuated twice and returning to a smoke-damaged home, Connie faced daily health issues while caring for her unwell husband. With no insurance support and limited emergency aid, they were left to cope alone. Through our smoke remediation work in California, we made their home a safe space again.

Ram and Rhed

A man wearing a blue hard hat labeled "Rhed," sunglasses, and a purple volunteer shirt crouches on scaffolding while painting a green metal post. He appears focused on his work, surrounded by colorful poles and tropical palm trees in the background.

Ram is no longer afraid when typhoons come.

After typhoons repeatedly damaged Ram’s school, his father Rhed joined AH&H as a volunteer to help rebuild it. The new school is safe and built with care to withstand future storms, bringing peace of mind to families and security for students like Ram, who’s focused on learning to read and write to become a police officer.

Tina

An older woman with gray hair and glasses stands outdoors wearing a bright blue University of Kentucky sweatshirt and a USMC lanyard. She looks calmly at the camera with a neutral expression, against a blurred natural background.

Tina’s burden of flood recovery was lifted when no other outside help was coming.

According to Tina, the mayor of Allen, 50 out of her city’s 61 homes were destroyed in a historic flood. Volunteers partnered with the community to clear heavy debris, muck and gut and sanitize homes, distributing fans and sanitation kits for homeowners to complete their own mold remediations.

Hurricanes Helene and Milton

  • Hurricanes Helene and Milton damaged or destroyed more than 35,000 homes across Florida and North Carolina, displacing over 40,000 people.

  • AH&H has supported over 350 homes (and counting) in Florida and North Carolina with debris removal, muck and gut, mold sanitation, and now, home repairs and tree removal.

  • Thanks to these efforts, over 520 people have safely returned home, and our work is still ongoing.

Hurricane Beryl

  • Hurricane Beryl was the earliest Category 5 storm ever recorded in the Atlantic, damaging or destroying 96% of homes on the small island of Carriacou in the Caribbean and causing even further destruction along the U.S. Gulf Coast.

  • AH&H partnered with organizations in Carriacou to distribute over 80,000 hot meals and support island-wide cleanup efforts. In rural Texas, sawyer teams removed dangerous debris and fallen trees to help restore safety and access.

  • 100 individuals in Carriacou and Wharton, Texas, returned to safer homes after our debris removal efforts, increasing their preparedness for the upcoming hurricane season.

Maui Wildfires

  • After the Maui wildfires, food insecurity among the local population surged from 25% to 49%. The disaster disrupted household finances, food production and local supply chains, leaving nearly half of all residents without reliable access to sufficient food.

  • Volunteers prepared and delivered more than 119,000 hot meals to communities across the island.

  • These meals provided nourishment to over 10,500 people in need.

Nepal Water Well

  • Shree Bhanubhakta School in Hariharpurgadhi faced severe drought and water shortages for over half the year, forcing students and staff to fetch water daily.

  • AH&H constructed a 21-foot-deep water well and installed a biosand filtration system to create a reliable and clean year-round water supply for the school.

  • The well delivers 2,700 liters of water daily, benefiting nearly 280 students and 20 local households, significantly improving hygiene and community water access without disrupting school time.

About Our Work

At All Hands & Hearts, we respond with urgency when disaster strikes and remain committed through recovery. Guided by our mission to help communities rebuild and get children back in school, we adapt each program to unique needs, cultures and priorities. No two disaster, community or recovery journeys are the same; this is why we create solutions that are as diverse and dynamic as the people we serve.
