Hearts In Motion Inc

Programs: Programs in place in the united states include local outreach activities in the chicago/northwest indiana service area, as well as national programs. The local programs include the support of various homeless and battered women shelters, as well as direct outreach to families in the service area affected by unemployment or severe medical needs. Hearts in motion operates a repository for used clothing and household supplies that are made available to families in need in the service area. These donations of used clothing and household supplies represent a large portion of the in-kind donations by the operation. In addition, families of several handicapped people in the area are supported with deliveries of donated food and household supplies and we are actively supporting other agencies.
