Help One Now Family,

Last week, we officially launched our Believe Campaign — and we couldn’t be more excited to share it with you.

In case you missed it, be sure to watch the video below. It captures the heart of why we do what we do. At Help One Now, we truly believe in the transformative power of education, and our team is working hard to raise $200,000 to fund 20 classrooms next school year.  Every dollar brings us one step closer to equipping students with the tools they need to break the cycle of poverty for good.

Community Moments That Moved Us

It’s been a beautiful season of connection and purpose. Across the country, the Help One Now community has been showing up, and we don’t take it lightly. These events remind us that giving isn’t just about the impact we make—it’s also about the community we build in the process.

Here’s just a glimpse of what’s been happening in your communities:

Berry Bloom Dinner | Northwest Arkansas
A huge THANK YOU to the Marrs Family for their incredible support! Berry Fest was a stunning evening of good food, meaningful conversation, and powerful storytelling—all in support of our partners in Zimbabwe. We’re already counting down to next berry season.

Wine & Unwind | St. Louis
Our regional advocate Ashley brought together a beautiful evening for the ladies of St. Louis. With a glass of wine and Christ-centered yoga, this was a time to slow down, connect, and recharge.

A Good Pour | Birmingham, AL
A backyard meal, premium bourbon tasting, and great company—what more could you ask for? This special night raised funds for the Family Business Program. Thank you, Birmingham, for turning generosity into something fun and joyful.

These events remind us that there’s so much more to doing good than simply giving. When we gather, celebrate, and build relationships rooted in shared purpose, generosity becomes a way of life—and yes, it can be FUN too.

To every host, donor, advocate, and guest—thank you. Let’s keep showing up, believing big, and building a better future together.

See the Impact You Made in 2024

We’re thrilled to share that our 2024 Annual Report is here!

This report is a celebration of what you helped make possible—from students empowered through education, to families strengthened through local leadership. Every number, every story, every life impacted… it all happened because of your generosity, your belief, and your commitment.

Thank you. We are constantly inspired by the HON community, and we carry this momentum into another year of believing big and loving well.

With hope,
The Help One Now Team
