Pleasant experience…Staff was great, very welcoming made my visit very seamless. Groceries were fresh and I’m very grateful for this organization.
Being part of Joshua's Heart Foundation (JHF) has been a transformative experience for our family. First, as a parent, I have observed a tremendous personal growth in my daughter over her years volunteering at JHF. For example, higher awareness of social injustices, thoughtful consideration to finding creative options to fight them, improved communication skills and her ongoing commitment to the organization, despite her increasing responsibilities at school. Second, JHF feels like an extended family. Thanks to the organization, I have a way to connect with my daughter to further a cause that we both value deeply. Third, Joshua, Claudia and all the organization's leadership team have been incredibly generous giving my daughter opportunities to grow her soft skills and mentoring her throughout the process.
I cannot be prouder of this organization and its members, and of its founder, Joshua, and his mom, Claudia, for being such a bright beacon for children willing to learn how to live a life of service and to become game changers for the betterment of society.
Joshua’s Heart is a wonderful foundation. I volunteer with my family and being able to transmit to my children the value of helping others is very gratifying. May God bless this foundation and allow us to continue supporting our people who need it most. Thank you for allowing us to be part of you.
Joshua’s Heart Foundation is more than just a nonprofit—it’s a family of change makers working to make a real difference in the fight against global hunger and poverty. Volunteering with Joshua’s Heart has been so rewarding. Whether it’s distributing groceries to those in need, working on the behind the scenes of the non profit, every effort feels meaningful. What I love most about volunteering here is that Joshua’s Heart gives young people like me the tools and opportunities to lead projects and make an impact in our communities. It’s inspiring to be part of an organization that has served millions of meals and continues to grow in its mission to create a better future for everyone. If you’re looking for a place to volunteer, learn, and grow, I can’t recommend JHF enough

They are really making a difference in fighting hunger and poverty!
From the time I have been coming to
Joshua's Heart Foundation i have had no regret with the quality of food that I received.
The volunteers work hard rain or shine and I can tell you they are not going to put any form of spoilage into your boxes. Very organized. Always in for a surprise never know what to expect. Has been a blessing. Anyone who has not been here will not regret it,
Really hard-working board members and volunteers. Not to mention the good spirit of everyone working together.

Ever since I joined JHF I have been amazed at the hard work and dedication of JHF. People in JHF really care about the people and even though they don't need the hours they do it anyway.
I love Joshua’s Heart foundation because what sets them apart is their commitment for both giving and growing together. There drive in helping others is complimented by a strong and supportive community that makes everyone feel heard and connected.
Joshua’s heart is a nonprofit that selflessly serves its community. It empowers its volunteers to connect with eachother and understand the impact of their work.

Joshua's Heart Foundation is an excellent non-profit organization. We are always focused on their mission of stopping hunger and fighting poverty. Since becoming part of the board of JHF, I have seen all the efforts that each member and volunteer makes to make a difference.
Joshuas Heart Foundation is an amazing nonprofit! They help people in need and are constantly fighting hunger and helping people in need. I volunteer there and I see first hand how hard the people there work.
I joined the organization in July and I love the drive of the group. Everyone is incredibly passionate and supportive and also very helpful. There is always an event going on every month and they love giving to others. :)
Joshua's heart has been an amazing experience. It is completely run by kids (Teens) and has been so much fun. Talking with everyone and having fun while volunteering is great, and we get to meet so many people. Highly recommended, incredible experience.
JOSHUA'S FOOD PANTRY is a great community based program that provides food to those in need , but also brings together the youth and adults of the community to serve others in packing and distributing the food".We Serve" is the motto of Lions International and as members of the Aventura North Miami Beach Lions we enjoy working with
all the youth and adult volunteers weekly to make it happen.!JOSHUA'S is helping all ages in 2 ways: providing the food and the joy of giving!
My experience at Joshua's Heart Foundation was great! The staff showed great hospitality towards me and the other volunteers. This non - profit organization is one of the best around, they're drive to help out the communities is second to none. I recommend anyone looking for community service hours or just wanting to support the community to volunteer at Joshua's Heart Foundation!
Diane enjoyed Volunteering helping preparing food for the less fortunate and taking to those don't have transportation.
Joshua's Heart Foundation is inspiring! When I started as a volunteer in the food bank, I was moved by the warmth of the staff. All the years of hard work to combat world hunger and serve the community make this organization trustworthy and reliable! As events manager, I am joyful to be part of the growth and changes. I encourage anyone to support and be part of this organization that is making a significant impact in our community and worldwide!
Joshua foundation is a great non profit organization. They've done a wonderful job in feeding the children's in our community and always exceeded expectations. We need more organization like these in our community and the world.
I had been a JAB member for JHF for close to 4 years now, and I have never met a more dedicated and inspiring group of people who are truly trying to make a difference. From helping at the pantry, to food drives or Hope Box distributions, they try to get help to people who need it in our community and globally. They appreciate any volunteers and help and are glad to add new members to the JHF community. As a high schooler in this organization, it is also a fun way to get service hours for school and invite friends to join.
Joshua’s Heart is an amazing non-profit, its more like a family, the amount we get to help out locally as well as globally is tremendous. The company around me as well as as everything that they provide is amazing. As a avid volunteer and board member, they have provided me an ample amount of opportunities to grow, it is an amazing non-profit that every one should volunteer at!

I have been volunteering with Joshua's Heart for about a year and I have nothing but good things to share about the organization. The staff is very warm and welcoming and go the extra mile to make sure that everyone is cared for. The work that this nonprofit does for the community is extremely important and I see it firsthand whenever I am out volunteering. People have expressed to me how much Joshua's Heart has helped them and their families and how they would recommend people to come to Joshua's Heart.
Volunteering at Joshua’s Heart made me realize what a great nonprofit does. They make an immense impact on the community and strive to help whoever they can. They get to know the people they help and understand their stories.

I am a board member of this organization and it is a fantastic help for families in need, while also providing great opportunities for community service.
I feel as though my effort in working with Joshua’s Heart Foundation has never been put to waste, as they truly work hours to prepare and gather food for the hungry. The people there were easily accessible and helpful, and it’s a great organization. I knew that working with them would benefit not only me, but the many people we were able to feed as a whole. -Lesianne Tupas (Volunteer)
Joshua's Heart Foundation is one of the greatest non-profit I've seen. Dedicated staff and volunteers inspiring the younger generation that changes can be created on a local level. They're goal is to help fight hunger by providing food essentials to low-income families. A non-profit that strives for greatness and always improving as time progresses.
Wouldn't choose any other place to volunteer than Joshua's Heart Foundation.
Joshua’s Heart Foundation is an amazing organization that genuinely puts other people first. From the start, the atmosphere has always been so welcoming and I have felt so happy volunteering. I have been attending the zoom calls over quarantine, learning more about the advisory board and their mission. I also have participated in food distributions for the needy where I got to first hand experience the overwhelming joy of making someone’s day even a little better! :)
I have been with JHF for the longest time and i can find no other place that has welcomed me with more open arms. JFH is truly a family and i am so glad to share this experience with my new friends.
My sister and I have volunteered with JHF for some time and it has truly changed our lives. Being apart of such foundation gave us a sense of responsibility, drive, motivation to help others and make a change.

The best nonprofit with the best people! Joshua’s Heart is like a second home and I am grateful to be apart of the foundation. No place can compare to Joshua’s Heart Foundation and I recommend everyone of all ages to volunteer here!
Every time I volunteer at Joshua’s Heart Foundation I always have a smile on my face and find an amazing community that works to support an important cause!
This is such a great foundation. It makes me feel happy when I help others. I am so thankful to be part of this foundation. I recommend you guys volunteer in this foundation because it is an amazing experience which you will never regret.
Joshua’s Heart Foundation is such a unique organization! Everyone who works and volunteers with the foundation is so kind and welcoming. They offer so many different things to get involved with. They have different projects, they have the Junior Advisory Board, they have food distributions, they host fundraisers, and is much more!
JHF is the organization to be apart of whether it is volunteering, becoming a JAB member, or donating. They are a family, everyone is the foundation is welcoming and inclusive. Each person has a drive to help others and that I something I admire so much.
My family and I have been volunteering with Joshua's Heart Foundation for a little over 9 years. My daughters were 5 years old when they started. JHF is one of the very few foundations that not only allows, but encourages children to start volunteering at an early age. The foundation does amazing work and has a true generous spirit among everyone. They have a true mission of community and education. I highly recommend volunteering. I believe JHF has given more to us as a family than we have given to them.
My experience with Joshua’s Heart has been nothing short of incredible and amazing. The foundation has helped so many people, and one of the best parts is that it is run by youth, so you get to be really involved and truly see the impact you are having on the community. I am so thankful to Joshua, Claudia and everyone who has helped me and so many others at the organization, for always doing their best to help the community, being open to new ideas, and inspiring so many people, including me, around the world. Thank you for everything, I am so grateful for you.
Joshua’s Heart Foundation makes the impossible, possible. It teaches people to be kind and take care of one another. It teaches teamwork and leadership as people pack hope boxes for the distribution to the homeless. The efforts inspired me to do more and I started a project called YOUTH4WOMEN within JHF. With this project I collect donated hygiene products and distribute them to homeless women. Joshua’s Heart Foundation has changed my heart, helped out millions of people and keeps on inspiring others to help.
Every time I volunteer at Joshua’s Heart I always have a smile on my face. This nonprofit organization is filled with the most amazing and caring people doing their absolute best to help feed their community. If you are in need of food assistance or want to volunteer Joshua’s Heart Foundation is the best place to go.
Love the way Joshua’s Heart gets the youth involved and puts them in the position to lead and make their own decisions about how they want to tackle the problem of world hunger.
Everyone is so friendly and it is very organized. It gives a sense of community and everyone is so nice!
During the COVID Pandemic, I wanted to find a way to give back to my community; I did some research and found Joshua's Heart Foundation. During my first day at the pantry, I was immediately welcomed into a warm hospitable environment. Everyone at the pantry, volunteers and staff alike, made sure that I was participating in a task that I wanted to do and ensured that I got the most out of my experience. The impact that this organization has, especially during the COVID Pandemic, is remarkable. There are so many families in dire need for food around Miami who come to the pantry and are treated with a high standard of hospitality as well. I am grateful to have found this organization and I am proud to be a volunteer at Joshua's Heart Foundation.
I 100% recommend joining Joshuas Heart. The way they help out the people in need always warms my heart. Everybody is always so heart warming and it feels like a family. Helping others always makes you feel so much better and especially with Joshuas Heart Foundation.
Amazing group of people! Great energy and vibes. So happy to be a part of an organization that has given me so many opportunities and helped me make such great friends!
I began volunteering with Joshua's Heart at the age of 10, and have now been with them for over 7 years. Being apart of this amazing foundation has not only given me such amazing opportunities but has shaped me into the person I am today. Over the years I have been able to experience great things with JAB, I have had the opportunity to attend the United Nations in NYC, advocate for hunger in Washington, feed thousands and thousands of families, and much more. I am now Chair of our Junior Advisory Board and will continue with my efforts.
Joshua’s heart is truly an amazing organization that aims to make a change in the world. It has provided me and many others with the opportunity to give back to our community, helping to make a significant change in our city.

I have been volunteering with JHF from the age of 13 years old. I sat on the Junior Advisory Board for about 7 years and it was one of the best experiences ever. Everyone is so welcoming and kind. I have made many friendships and relationships with others through the foundation that will last a lifetime. Over the years, I have had the chance to travel to places like Chicago and Wisconsin to represent JHF along with other JAB members. I am so grateful to still be apart of JHF, I am currently the Social Media Coordinator and an Alumni Director. #JHFFAMILY
This is a great organization to be apart of, from the welcoming energy given to the kind hearted mission with the organization, you’ll always have a good experience. With being apart of this non profit organization, i’ve met so much people and have stepped out of my comfort zone to give back to my community. Joshuas Heart is a foundation that is always ready to help and always goes above and beyond for others.
Joshua’s Heart is an amazing foundation that truly lets the youth take charge and lead many distributions, projects and much more. I have been working with this foundation since 2013 and have helped make such a huge impact in the tri-county area. I have not only worked with the board and volunteers but I have gone to Washington DC with JHF to advocate for the ending of malnutrition and poverty. During the current pandemic I have been volunteering at the pantry and helping out so many people who were hurt during this time. The pantry is very friendly and like a family!!
My work with Joshua's Heart Foundation has been a tremendous experience for me. Since the 1990's, I have founded 5 food banks/food cooperatives around the world. As Program Director in the midst of COVID-19, it has been an exciting challenge. What has been the most heartwarming and amazing aspect is that I have never met more devoted employees and volunteers who work so hard to ensure that the most vulnerable members of the community receive food. It is a truly a blessing!
Volunteering with the Joshua Heart Foundation has been a engaging and fun experience with welcoming and positive people. I have felt like I have really made a difference with Joshua Heart, and I love volunteering with them. Their message is amazing and being part of their mission is both meaningful and exciting.
The Joshua’s Heart Foundation is an amazing organization dedicated to providing food for thousands of families in the community. Between it’s fantastic staff and volunteers of all ages, the Joshua’s Heart Organization makes everyone feel at home. Through it’s hard work, the Joshua’s Heart Foundation has helped in the fight against world hunger and its extraordinary service should not go unnoticed
My kids and I spent the day helping at Joshua's Heart Foundation as part of a requirement for our kids' church program, and so we signed up to help make up their community service hours. However, after spending the day with Ms. Peggy and the rest of the staff and volunteers at JHF, we found that what started as a to-do task quickly turned into an enjoyable day knowing we were helping make a difference. This organization and its staff are truly doing a lot of good out here for the community and our people who need the help. Everyone at JHF has a heart for what they are doing whether sorting vegetables or unloading a truck, everyone works well together and works towards the purpose of serving others. We enjoyed helping at Joshua's Heart Foundation and we look forward to volunteering again.
I set up a volunteer experience with Joshua's Heart for my team, we had about 24 people who came to help with food distribution. We had a great time helping the organization give food to people and learned a lot about food insecurity in Miami. We enjoyed our time with the organization and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to volunteer. They were very organized and fair in their distribution process and had plenty of activities to do up until the food distribution! Once it was time to give food, everyone had a role and interacted with the people. This was the best part! We saw who would be consuming the food and were able to chat as they chose their produce. We also liked that the organization gave healthy, fresh food to people, not unhealthy, processed foods. We had a wonderful time! We met everyone at the organization including the founder, which made the whole experience extremely rewarding. If you are looking for a place to volunteer, choose Joshua's Heart, their mission is very inspiring and their impact is huge. Without them, the community would not be the same. I would recommend working with them to anyone, as they were very helpful and open to ideas, along with being very accommodating and patient.
I am the proud parent of three JHF members! Our family has been directly impacted by the foundation's amazing work for over 10 years. They not only address the ever important basic need and right of every human to live without hunger, they also empower and support the growth of future leaders by empowering our youth and making them believe in their own powers to generate change and to do good on any scale they wish. The foundation was founded by Joshua Williams at age 4.5 and remains youth operated. Love them! Attend one of their events and you will be moved to indescribable joy! Their energy and vibe are contagious!

Our lives are enriched by our involvement with JHF. It is an honor to know Joshua (abd his mother Claudia), and I encourage anyone to join in their efforts to help others, at least once and you will become a regular. Incredibly organized events and a focus on the needy that drives their success. Congratulations Joshua, you are a hero and an inspiration.
Although I am a new member, I can wholeheartedly say that this is an amazing non-profit organization that has provided me with fantastic volunteer opportunities and leadership experience.
I have been volunteering for Joshuas Heart for a while now and it has truly been an amazing experience. I love volunteering for this organization and love everything that it stands for. The mission of Joshuas Heart is to Stomp Out Hunger, and they do it regularly with food distributions and with a food pantry that you can walk up to and receive Food. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to make a difference in this world.
Joshua’s Heart foundation is a wonderful organization dedicated to providing food and surplus items for those in need. I had the opportunity to volunteer for this non-profit organization and all
I could say is that they are well
organized and caring. Everyone who works there gives 100% effort to make sure those in need have what they came for. Thank you for your dedication!
I was a former junior advisory board member for Joshua’s Heart Foundation as well as a volunteer. I love this organization and everything it stands for. This organization was created in order to help people struggling and in need of food in underdeveloped communities. There are many people starving and hungry with no resources in order to get daily food, which is why this organization is so necessary in not only my community but various other communities around the United States.
Joshuas Heart Foundation was started with the heart of an innocent child just simply wanting to help the hungry! The foundation grew over the years with the help of many other innocent children who saw the vision to help the needy, hungry and helpless! This foundation has to continue for many years to come. Lives are changed! Future leaders are being created! Please support this fantastic foundation!!

Joshua's Heart has been a blessing to thousands of needy, hungry, underprivileged, unemployed individuals throughout the nation. I am a parent and have assisted, as well as my two children; it brings great joy to be a part of such an organisation. The happiness and relief on the faces of the individuals receiving packets is priceless. Please support and help to continue to build this foundation to greater heights.
I happily recommend this organization. Joshua's heart is full of individuals who care about their community. My daughter has been a member of the Jr Advisory Board for the past 6 years. They have organized food distributions, they have provided a hot meal and Christmas presents along with books for families at their annual Christmas feast, they have provided food at Thanksgiving and now they have a food pantry that's open daily for those who are in need. The organization not only provides for the community, but it gives our children an outlet to serve and lead. I can't think of a better Organization for your children to be a part of. It was founded by a young man and it shows that you are never too young to make a difference.
Joshua’ Heart Foundation has been such a huge part of my daughters life for so many years, they have mentored and supported her through middle school and all the way through high school graduation . Every year through their vision Joshua and Claudia have come together to not only give to the community but build up the confidence of and spirit of giving to its members. I think it is a wonderful organization that selflessly gives 365 days a year!

I first encountered Joshua's Heart foundation a few weeks after my daughter started middle school . We were going through the transition of a new school experience and almost immediately we were informed that the school was having an event to help families with food, uniforms, and school supplies! All I could say is wow what a wonderful new school ! My family was so surprised that at the event kids of all ages were packaging goodies , backpacks, and essentials for all of us families. Our school had the need and Joshua's Heart Foundation really provided more than food, they showed our students that they too could help make a difference ! My daughter joined Joshua's Heart Foundation ! I want to say Thank you to the dedicated volunteers and partners, who make Joshua's mission possible.
JHF is the best Non-Profit Oganization for young people who want to give back to their communities. Not only are JHFs volunteers carrying out Joshua's vision, they are fully supported to carry out their own, with the organizations help. If you want your kids involved in an organization with high value, morals, integrity, and opportunities to grow into good citizens, give JHF a try. Family for life!

Joshua's heart foundation is such a unique organization. The simple fact that it took the heart and determination of one little boy, with the support of his mother and others around him, to make such a great difference in the lives of many, is inspirational in itself. Joshua is such a great role model and ambassador for children everywhere, and surely opens the eyes of adults as well, while leading in the arena of stopping world hunger. Joshua was kind enough to come out to our school on Career Day and motivate our Elementary school students to make a difference in the communities in which they live, in whatever way they can. He also demonstrated to them that you are never to young to move mountains. His humanitarian values resonate throughout the cafeteria and his words resounded in the ears of our young students. He made such an impression on them. Not only did Joshua attend Career Day, he developed a bond with our school, as he has with many. He graciously introduced and implemented his food distribution program to our families and the community, feeding 100 families. What a magnificent gesture for a Title one school which 90% of the student population is on free an reduced lunch. We are actually preparing for our second implementation of the food distribution program at the end of April. Joshua, his mother and entire staff are kind, caring, and giving. We appreciate their hard work, dedication and commitment towards making this world a better place one meal at a time. Thank you!!!
Joshua's heart is a great nonprofit. It's mission is to Stomp Out Hunger! And they do it regularly with food distributions and with a food pantry that you can walk up to and receive Food.

Joshua's Heart has shaped me into the person I am today. By allowing me to be Vice Chair of the Junior Advisory Board, I have had the chance to step out of my comfort zone. I have learned many skills that I can put to use in all of my future endeavors. Not only have I learned very useful skills, but I have met some incredible people who I have been able to make good friendships with.
Impossible not leaving JHF with a smile in the face. It is an amazing charity to volunteer. The administrators are great and sweet people; they make you experience an incredible day. Definitely, I’ll be there again.
We had a great time stocking shelves with ladies. It was nice to know that we are helping people come to JH pantry and find good nutritious food. We will be there next week to help out again.
Today, I volunteered at the thanksgiving grocery giveaway on the behalf of Joshua’s heart organization. Emily, a junior board member organized the event that helped feed 260 families in north Miami. It was an excellently planned and executed event that brought youth and parent volunteers together with the local less fortunate community in the true sense of thanksgiving. It was an extremely humbling and gratifying experience. I am thankful for all the hard work it took to organize such an event and definitely plan on joining more events put forth by this organization .
I helped out at the thanksgiving meal food collection this morning. It was such a wonderful experience and everyone is so kind and welcoming. I was able to talk to the less fortunate and provide them with a complete thanksgiving meal for them. Joshua’s Heart really opened my eyes up to world hunger and i am so glad I joined their foundation. Definitely recommend.
I have been volunteering with Joshua’s Heart Foundation for many years and I have cherished every moment. This organization is unique, unlike any other. One of my favorite aspects is that it is ran entirely by young people who are trying to make a difference in the world. Personally, I have enjoyed volunteering alongside many like minded individuals. Joshua’s Heart isn’t just about reducing poverty levels and ending world hunger, they take their time to build young leaders. Great organization!
Joshua’s Heart is not just about giving food, but also sharing your heart with those that need it most. Members are encouraged to spearhead their own projects or participate in food distributions and food drives in their local areas. Active volunteers are not only helping themselves become better people, but by doing so, help so many others! These teens are true embodiments of the phrase “You are never too young to make a difference.” From my experiences with Joshua, his foundation, and all the incredible volunteers that make his dream a reality, I’ve learned that anyone can do whatever they set their mind to no matter their age.
Joshua’s Heart Foundation is such an amazing group bringing youth from a variety of communities and cultures together to help others. JHF inspires kids of today to be leaders of tomorrow with care and compassion for all.
Wonderful organization that promotes love in action with a focus on youth empowerment to make positive change.
I don't even know where to begin. I've been apart of Joshua's Heart for about a year now and the impact is just an absolute blessing. I see so many people receiving food assistance for their household and its just heart warming to see that a little kid made it his duty to help other people. The volunteers really work hard at making sure they do their part to help all who come to receive donations. In my opinion the charity really benefits those who give and receive. It's really an eye opener to see that life isn't always so sweet in sunny South Florida and there are people in need of help. But Thank God there are charities out there like Joshua's Heart Foundation who care about helping others and are committed to STOMPING out world hunger! THANK YOU JOSHUA AND KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT WORK
This is a great place to volunteer, as soon as I arrived I felt welcomed. Joshua's Heart is a great organization, with great people. The effect this organization has on the community is pretty incredible. If you're looking for somewhere to help this is it.
What started out as an opportunity for my daughter to get her school service hour requirements completed/met ended up as my wish to continue volunteering my time to this worthy and wonderful organization. I witnessed firsthand how Joshua’s Heart helps those in need and less fortunate in our community. I encourage anyone looking into making a difference directly by volunteering their time or indirectly by donating monetary funds to consider Joshua’s Heart Foundation.
I enriched my soul for volunteering and left with a happy heart knowing I made a difference in the lives of those that depend on this worthy organization for a meal and a friendly smile.
Joshua’s Heart is a hands on experience that lets you witness the fruits of our labor. Wonderful way to teach my daughter and her friends a life long lesson. Well organized and a very friendly environment for all.
Our family has volunteered at Joshua’s Heart serval times. It’s a great organization geared towards the youth contributing to our community. It is a hands on expirence that lets you witness the fruits of our labor. Joshua’s Heart is a wonderful way to help others and to teach our youth some life long lessons.
My name is Susan and my daughter's name is Sad'e who was just invited to be a JAB member we volunteered today with Joshua heart foundation. and I have to tell you it was so humbling, to know that we are making a difference in the world by simply giving back ,the people we met today was so warm and kind it's like we knew them a lifetime we are so glad to be a part of this great organization!# much Blessings.
Our High School Youth Group was introduced to Joshua's Heart through the Miami DOOR program. We had the privilege of spending a day helping Ms. Peggy, Ms. Sharon and Ms. Pam stock shelves and prepare for food distribution. We then had the pleasure to help distribute food to those in need who came through the doors. Joshua's Heart is a front line operation that puts much needed food in the hands of those who need it. We were impressed that fresh breads, fruits, vegetables and milk were offered in addition to box and canned goods. Our high school youth were treated at the end of the day with a FaceTime session with Joshua himself. The entire day left us feeling humbled and grateful. This organization is a shining example that no matter how old you are or how much you have to get started you can make a difference. All it takes is a love for people and a passion to serve. Blessings to you all of you and the work you do each day. If you are looking for a place to connect and help in a community, please consider Joshua's Heart. You will not be disappointed.
I've been volunteering my services in this foundation for three months now and I can see how joyful the people are with the help that they are receiving from the foundation by somehow alleviating their financial struggles by giving them food. I will continue to help the community by volunteering in this foundation during my free time and I urge everybody to do the same. What a wonderful feeling to be able to help!
As an adult volunteer I found their homeless feeding program to be very rewarding and inspiring. It is well organized and a friendly place to work. They are an above board agency doing really good work. I would recommend anyone to volunteer there.
A few years back I was looking for a place to volunteer hands on. I stumbled upon Joshua's heart foundation and haven't looked back. Their mission is amazing and the enthusiasm of the volunteers contagious. This group has grown since I started volunteering just a few short years ago.
When I can be a part of an event feeding the homeless the rewards from the recipients of HOPE BAGS and BOXES is beautifully received by those most needy. Recently I've started to help with the pantry that distributes to those in the community most in need. I arrive and help sort out the food and put on the shelves. Then when the folks come to pick up their food for the week I help them. It feels like a grocery store and the products that are donated are top notch. By this I mean a great variety and many organic options both fresh and boxed.
By helping at Joshua's heart I feel like I'm with extended family. Even if I haven't volunteered in a couple of months you always recognize a familiar face. Thank you for letting me be a part of your great organization and the opportunity to help others!!!
Sincerely,
Angie Novigrod

My family has had an incredible experience over the years with Joshua's Heart Foundation. Our daughters have grow as individuals. Thanks Joshua's Heart foundation!!!!
Joshua's Heart is a great organization that has helped me in so many ways. Giving back to the community through Joshua’s Heart has helped me learn many skills that I believe will help me greatly later in life. Not only has it helped me mature as a person by teaching me important values such as appreciation and respect, but it has also taught me practical lessons such as how to run a business. Joshua’s Heart is a great organization run by amazing kids who have inspired me to consistently make a difference in the community and the world.
Joshua’s Heart is an amazing organization that inspires youth activism. It is rare to find an organization that is run by youth who make an impact on all people of all ages in the community. Through their various events such as food and grocery distributions, packing of supplies for the homeless, etc. youth can get a chance to be involved to help those in need and make a difference in their communities. Their act of kindness then inspires others to complete the circle of giving. Joshua Williams, its founder, exemplifies true leadership and generosity and that anyone, no matter their age, can make a difference in their communities.
My children have been members of Joshua's Heart Foundation for the last 2 years and I am so very proud of them as they help to execute the organization's efforts in feeding the needy and homeless within Florida communities. My children have learnt so much in the process. Not only from their leadership positions within the Junior Advisory Board, but also being team players as they Work together on projects. Most importantly JHF has increased their compassion for those less fortunate. JHF has truly been a gift to my family and to the communities they service throughout the year.
We have been involved with Joshua's Heart Foundation for over 5 years now and each time we feel humbled and privileged to be blessed with the honor to serve. JHF is very much a part of lives as well as a priority. We look forward to the events, gatherings, meetings and plans as the foundation continues to evolve and makes such an incredible difference in our communities.
My 10 year old son joined JHF almost 2 years ago after meeting Joshua in his school. He was touched by the facts about how many people didn't have access to food in the world and in our country and decided to join these kids in the quest to change that.
Unlike other foundations, JHF empowers kids to fight for a cause they believe in, it proves them that even at such a young age they can make a difference, enables them to get in touch with people in need and let them experience first hand the joy of giving back and sharing blessings with others.
JHF has certainly impacted my son's view of the world and the importance of getting involved.
My child is an active participant with Joshua's Heart Foundation. Children feeding the hungry, what a wonderful way to serve humanity. Joshua's Heart reinforces that kids have power to make a change.
As an adult volunteer with Joshua's Heart Foundation since February 2016, I have served meals to the homeless and participated in several food distributions. I have been humbled by each experience and so blessed beyond measure. This is an organization that is truly committed to its mission to end hunger.
During the Feb 2017 food distribution, I had the pleasure of volunteering with Joshua's Heart. There was a team of youth willing and eager to help the residents of Coconut Groove through the food distribution line. I was very impressed with the collaboration with other projects: toiletries and book give away started by friends of Joshua. The items where of excellent quality and the service to the community was organized and timely. I would recommend everyone get involved to help provide the needs in our community.
I had a great experience helping Joshua Heart foundation on the food distribution in coconut grove on January 25.
The whole event was very well organized and the volunteers were helpful on setting up and taking care of the families.
I will participate in any other event from Joshua Heart. They really showed their commitment to nutrition & education of the community.
Thank you for all your efforts.

Awesome Foundation. JHF really cares about the homeless and needy families and are so dedicated to serving the community. I love volunteering with the Foundation.
This is the type of organization that spends all it receives in getting food to the hungry.
I have been involved and seen them operate for the past 4 years and it is truly amazing how Joshua has inspired more kids to give back. They all work hard and get the job done without any wasted time, effort or money.
Joshua, is truly an amazing person and so inspirational to our children. Joshua's mom was kind enough to set up a meeting with two of my students to give them expert advice on their Passion Projects about world poverty. He was kind and so helpful to my students he answered questions and gave them great feedback on his experiences and how they can be leaders and help change the world even at their young age.
Thank you Joshua and Claudia ;)
I have been volunteering with Joshua's Heart Foundation for 3 years. Aside from greatly influencing the life of many by stomping out world hunger, this organization has prompted me to grow as a person by allowing me to imprint my mark on the world.
A great foundation led by kids and teens from around Miami. Inspirational and vital to the community of Miami.
I've been working on the Junior Advisory Board for almost two years and it has been a great experience. Joshua's Heart is a great organization that is truly dedicated to carrying out its mission which is to tackle world hunger. They are a productive and organized group and a very good one to volunteer for
When ever we need to volunteer for a good cause we can always depend on Joshua's Heart because they are always helping others...We are thankful for this organization
Joshua's Heart(JHF) is an amazing organization run by kids, for kids and with kids in mind. They lead by example and take #foodinsecurity very seriously. If you are looking for a way to show your young son or daughter the true meaning of selfless giving and what it means to be your brother's keeper than have them spend a day hey will leave better than when they arrived. These young people are passionate about their mission and welcome all newcomers that what to make a difference, one child or one family at a time.
I'm receiving assistance for my clients and is amazing to see the passion and caring for the kids. kids can get, a learning opportunity to be caring to others.
I have been volunteering with Joshua's Heart for several months. Recently I assisted them in packing food, to ship to Jamaica to help stomp out hunger. I was happy to be a part of that mission. Joshua's Heart Foundation is a very hard working, dedicated, and fun team to work with. Amazing job, well done guys.
Joshuas Heart Foundation Inc is an excellent example of our youth making a difference. This organization was started by a young boy with a big heart who wanted to help feed the hungry. It is an organization of children addressing the very grown up problem of hunger. My daughter has learned that you are never too young to help and that an act of kindness takes on a life of it's own. Joshuas Heart is sharing meals and stomping out hunger across the americas.
Joshua's Heart Foundation is an extremely well organized not for profit organization that works with many different City's and other not for profits on providing free services to low income families. The City of Fort Lauderdale Parks and Recreation Department is currently partnering with them on providing free food to low income families in the 33311 area in November. Without the work that Joshua's Heart Foundation takes the lead on we would not be able to offer this free service to the families in need in this community. On behalf of the families in the 33311 zip code, thank you Joshua Heart for organizing these wonderful free services as they are greatly needed.
This week Joshua's Heart Foundation coordinated with a team in Jamaica to send food and clothing for families and children in a rural part of the country. So many hearts and spirits will be uplifted by this act of kindness. A big thanks to God and all his helping hands in making this possible.

Johuas Heart Foundation (JHF) is one of the few non-profits where children can actively participate. For at least four years, I have witnessed the OUTSTANDING work of this foundation which embodies care and respect for all humankind. Today, conversations with my children include topics about social responsibility and it's a direct result of being involved with JHF!
Just a few days ago I volunteered with Joshua's Heart to help pack and ship food to less fortunate and I was simply amazed of the hardwork they put in just to help others. Joshua's heart is my favorite nonprofit organization to work with it. I love what they do for others.
When my 14 year old daughter was required to do community service for her school, JHF was her only option. All other organizations had an age requirement of at least 16. JHF allowed children & teens of all ages, to participate in the planning, packing & delivery of foods for the less fortunate. My daughter learned more about non profit & governing with a global awareness & goal to stomp out world hunger.

Amazing leadership training for kids! Supportive people who really care RUN this organization with all the help you need to help others! Not only have my kids matured by learning how to lead others to do good, but their hearts are in the right place when they see what a difference you can make to others when you give!
My daughter started volunteering with Joshua at age eight. It has been an amazing opportunity for her and for our family to work together with JHF in different ways. JHF has grown and expanded and it is great to see more and more young people join every year to make a change in our world. Congratulations Joshua and Claudia!
Have worked with Joshua's Heart Foundation on numerous events the last two years as a volunteer. They are a youthful group, focused and relentless in their pursuit of their mission to help end hunger. They are led by visionary Josh who is surrounded by some of the most capable young people I've ever been around. These are certainly the leaders of tomorrow who are making a difference today!....M Selen
My daughter and I have been a volunteers at Joshua's Heart Foundation for almost three years and the best thing is that when you help someone thriugh the foundation in need and you see their faces... WOW!!! You know you are making a difference. We love to work with the foundation
This is a great Foundation! This all started when Joshua Williams ,at four years old, wanted to help the hungry. Now, it has sprouted into something huge and has even been talked about at We Day!
I've been volunteering with Joshua's Heart Foundation for four years now and I love it what it stands for!!!
I love working with Joshuas heart mainly because they teach other kids how to be charitable and I think that is great for humanity.
My son and I have been a volunteer with Joshua's Heart for over 4 years and as volunteers we have witnessed first hand the dedication and commitment that Joshua and team have put into this non profit foundation in giving back to his community and surrounding communities. It is an honor for my son and I to represent such a wonderful foundation that has put their heart and soul into caring and sharing with those who are in need.
What started out as supporting a golf tournament for Joshua's Heart sponsored by my company, CNLBank, has now affected and transformed my life and the lives of my children. Since my girls have become members of Joshua's Heart Board for 2015-2016, I am constantly amazed at the difference children can make in the lives of the less fortunate. Our involvement with Joshua's Heart has been a life altering experience for us, both individually and as a family, and on different levels. First, we no longer just "talk the talk", we are truly able to "walk the walk". My girls are participating in service to others, something they have always wanted to do and we have found the right organization for that. The meal packaging event allowed the girls to find and develop purpose and meaning to life at an early age. Additionally, they have a deeper appreciation of their lives. They also now feel there is more joy and blessing to give than to receive. The girls are eager to volunteer and cannot wait for the next event. As a parent and a volunteer all I can say is way to go Joshua and Joshua's Heart Foundation, keep doing the great work in the community and changing lives one family at a time.
Outstanding work by Joshua. I'm proud to see the young man he has become and the amazing things he has done and continues to do through the organization. Joshua is definitely a young man with a clear vision of what he wants to accomplish, compassion and perseverance as he continues to provide for the needs of the less fortunate.
Joshua lights up the room everywhere he goes. His commitment to his cause is contagious and the wold is a better place because of him, I know that I am.
I wish to thank the folks from JoshuasHeart Foundation for allowing me to volunteer at last Saturday's Share a Meal Event. For me, the experience was uplifting and humbling at the same time. It is clear JoshuasHeart demonstrates their genuine love for humanity. The energy and enthusiasm of the hard working staff, volunteers and sponsors helping to feed and assist those in need is contagious. This nonprofit has the compassion and empathy that makes a real difference in the lives of those less fortunate; character traits that are sorely lacking in our society. The world could learn a great lesson from these folks.
It was a wonderful experience volunteering with Joshua's Heart Share A Meal. I love how the children had an opportunity to get involved and give back to the community. Families received a Christmas grocery bag, wrapped gifts for the children, books, picture with Santa and we served the families dinner. I look forward to that awesome experience again. Seeing how pleased those families were was a blessing in itself. Our holiday spirit has been fulfilled through Joshua's Heart.
Joshua William's is a young man with compassion for helping other's beyond any young person I have ever met. His tenacity with Joshua's Heart Foundation to "Stomp out Hunger" is the drive and motivation for the foundation.
Joshuas's Heart Foundation ensures that the community in South Florida has food for their families. I have volunteered on several occasions and when I see the determination in Joshua's eyes giving food to the less fortunate brings me to tears. This is a young man with a Foundation that strives to take on "Stomping out Hunger" around the World. I pray to see the day when Joshua's Heart Foundation can receive an endowment to feed more people around the World.
I started doing some charity events with Joshua's heart about 1.5 years ago. I was trying to find a local charity that gave back to the community and I could be hands on with. I found them online and liked what I read about their vision. When doing the events you get to feel the gratefulness of the individuals and families receiving from Joshua's heart. I have met some wonderful people and children helping out here. They are the BEST charity I have ever worked by far! I am proud of the work Joshua's heart does in Miami and beyond. The kids who work side by side are pretty amazing. It's a joy to see so many young kids wanting to do good for others. Joshua and his vision are a great inspiration to me and reminds me what happens when you have love in your heart!
I started out in Joshaus Heart about 2 years out. I started out as a volunteer and then became a Junior Advisory Board. Now I am the volunteer coordinator of the foundation. I absolutely fell in love with the missions and im excited for the future of the foundation.
Joshua's Heart is a life changing organization. It not only changes lives for those in need, but also for those who volunteer. Joshua is a forward thinking youth trying to make a difference in our society while teaching other youngsters to do the same. He is an excellent role model.
My daughter is a Jab member of this amazing organization handle by young people. It has been for her and for the whole family a great experience to feel that we are contributing a bit to help the less fortunate. Also I love the way all the jab members and volunteers open their heart to help others and being an example in how to make a difference in this world.
Joshua's Heart Foundation continues to shine as a beacon to light a path of hope where there seems to be none. It serves as a place of redemption for those like me who did not know how to say thank you or to give back for what had been given to them. It is a place to serve and not worry about being served. I pray that they are able to continue this wonderful ministry for as long as there are folk in need and that there are folk willing to answer the call to be a part of this wonderful blessing to and for others. Joshua's Heart Foundation, a great organization with one great mission - to help others.
North Miami Avenue Church of God have been a Partner with Joshua's Heart Foundation in providing a venue for the effective distribution of materials to those who are in need. As a result of the tremendous service of goodwill, this organization brings hope and encouragement to those less fortunate in its service area.
Our company works with joshuas heart foundation in their backpack program and with other donation projects. It is incredible the lives that they touch and all the people they help within our community. Helping with this foundation has made us as individuals reflect on our own lives and see how we can give back and improve our daily life. It is an absolute honor to be able to work with such a great organization.
For many years I've volunteered with Joshua's Heart through the AT&T Pioneers and Community NETwork, an AT&T Employee Resource Group. It makes me feel good that we share the value of giving back to others. Not only do we volunteer with them, we host food collections to help their efforts! They truly believe in the words of Winston Churchill, "We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give."
Volunteering with them and with AT&T PIONEERS makes me know that we are helping so many people and family's have a better fulfilled life.
I am a classroom teacher and I have had the privilege of feeling the warmth of Joshua's Heart for several years. They are very professional and organized and they just get better and better every year. I look forward to working with Joshua's Heart Foundation for years to come.
I've had opportunity to see Joshua working alongside the kids on his board. i've also visited with some families who have been encouraged and helped by JHF. Joshua and the Foundation set a great example to all of us that we can make a difference in the world right where we are. I love that Joshua encourages kids to take an active role in changing their world and he leads by example.
I believe that God has provided the earth with all the resources to feed everyone who live on it, but that’s not what’s happening today. Being a part of Joshua’s Heart Foundation allow me to see so many families and children who are not able to get food. I became a part of Joshua’s Heart Foundation when I was 14 years old and I am so very proud of this Foundation, we’re working to truly “stomp out hunger”. My participation with so many other volunteers working along with Joshua himself to distribute food to those in need has helped me gain greater insights to the dedication and commitment of everyone who is a part of the foundation. Thank you Joshua.
I am writing this personal testimony for Joshua Williams and the team behind the Joshua’s Heart Foundation, in hopes to give greater insight to his dedication and the team’s commitment to their mission. I have had the honor and privilege to work with Joshua in several projects over the years. As a young man he possesses the diplomacy, communication skills and professionalism of a true leader. The Joshua’s Heart Foundation has been at the forefront of feeding those in need and setting leadership examples to young philanthropists in South Florida. Joshua is an extremely bright young man and a true “people person”; his energetic personality and love for giving back is totality contagious!
If you have the opportunity to work in any capacity with Joshua Williams and the team behind the Joshua’s Heart Foundation I highly suggest you take it, for he is one of the true philanthropists that will change the world.

Thank you Joshua for being a role model to the world and teaching so many people how to open their hearts to help others in need. Thank you for all you do and I can tell you my kids are learning a lot with you. The world needs more Joshuas touching people lives.
I recently participated in a food distribution sponsored by Joshua Heart Foundation on 1/20/2014. I would like to say THANK YOU to Joshua's Heart Foundation for the huge help it gave to my family. I live in the Little Haiti Community and my family has been going through some difficult financial issues. The boxes of food that I received was just in time. Whomever packed those boxes were thinking about families like mine. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for providing for my family and countless others who otherwise would go hungry. This a great organization and I wish you much success as you help other families.
Thank you Joshuas for everthing you doing for all the familys of memorial hwy My God Bless you and keep you strong and healthy all days of your life thank you claulafor all your help to thank you patricia and phillip love always
After the event on January 20th , I sat for a while in my living room and reflected on the day's events. I could still see the radiant smiles, hear the deep gratitude of "thank yous",the joyful chattering of families as they briskly walked to their cars .I asked myself the question," What could we as a community do to say thank you ,or to show our appreciation to such a Stellar organization who have made such a tremendous difference in so many, many, lives ?"The many hundreds of families that were present at the feeding are the testimonials that Joshua's Heart have resuscitated many lives.
I was very honored to share in this community event with an organization who went the extra mile to show that they CARED ENOUGH TO SHARE!

My organization asked my coworker and I if we knew any families that could benefit from the boxes of food and personal items and we did. We were able to pick up the food today and the volunteers were so pleasant and helpful. I had never heard of the organization before, but I have told everyone I know about it today. I was thrilled to see that it was started by a young child. What an awesome initiative and I will be sharing his story with my students. Thank you!!
My family and I would like to thank you for your wonderful contributions to our family.
Sincerely,
Helen Moore & Family
Simply put these guys are awesome! What they are doing in the community and for the world is great! Our kids really have a place in this world to make a change and this organization is the proof. I could go on and on, but I echo a lot of the sentiments that others have as well. Continue to be great! The JHF team has only begun to fight!
Joshua's Heart Foundation cares about the blight of the people, those who have fallen on hard times, who are less fortunate, those in need and most of all the hungry in America. This well put together, well organized foundation is the most impressive charitable organization I have ever worked with or affiliated with in a life time. When distributing food to the poor - the volunteers are so caring and so helpful ...you can say they are willing workings for the cause. I fell in love with young Joshua and mother, Claudia, who had spearheaded this organization--they deserve high commendations and citations for their efforts and the genuine heart of love for the people.
I'm just in awe at the cohesiveness and the response for the glorious event. I've done some volunteering in the past, but i have never experience anything like this before. Not only was the concert GREAT, but young Joshua to come to each venue to introduce himself and to thank each and every one for the hardwork and dedication nearly brought me to my feet! Although he''s still a kid at heart when it came time for him to step in and step up to represent his foundation i was totally taken aback. I look for to volunteering for future events for Joshua...you are my hero!
I have been a volunteer for Joshua's Heart Foundation for three years now. I began as just an advocate raising awareness about the organization and collecting non-perishable items. After my first thanksgiving experience in 2010 I knew I would be a life long volunteer. Joshua's Heart Foundation is a unique non-profit because it unites the young, middle aged, and the elderly to serve to reach a common goal of stomping out hunger. I love this organization because it gives you the opportunity to grow personally and professionally. You can be a simple volunteer or be more involved by being on a committee, organizing your own food drive, or helping organize distribution. I was blessed to have the opportunity to be the volunteer coordinator last year and help with their backpack program initiative as well as their HOPE boxes for the homeless project. Joshua's Heart Foundation is a definite part of my heart. I have told everyone I know about this org because I love it so much. I have gotten colleagues, classmates, family members, and friends involved because I believe in their mission.

From my perspective, Joshua's Heart has demonstrated and established that we (young people) can help make a difference. It's so good knowing that kid's can contribute, put a smile on peoples face, and do it all in their free time because they choose to make other people happy instead of taking things for granted. We're so lucky we have this program because it helps both families and volunteers realize that their are many people in the world who aren't as lucky as we are and allows them to give back.
I think Joshua has changed everyones life that he has come in contact with, especially those who receive food and it is a wonderful thing that he is doing. I've been involved with Joshua's Heart for a long time, and I think that it is very important that everyone has food to eat. I know volunteering with this foundation puts a smile on my face and it makes me a better person knowing that I have helped someone.
It's wonderful to see kids concerned and actually doing something to make their community a better place. Joshua's Heart is an organization that allows children to actively get involved. The kids are hands on volunteers who are involved in the planning, collecting and dissemination of food. They can see the actual families the foundation helps and the thankfulness and appreciation on their faces when they walk away having gotten food at a distribution. Twelve year old Joshua and his family can be found right alongside the volunteers of all ages helping at events. I'm lucky to have found this non profit. It's a great organization to get your children involved with.
Great, successful event today; Wish there were more! Hope to be a part of it next year! Thank you! please share any pictures

Joshua's Heart is not your typical non-profit organization. It is a unique group of youngsters led by Joshua to embark in a great cause to help out people fight hunger and other basic needs. This organization accepts under age kids and helps them by inspiring ways to get involved with the community and develop a sense of social responsibility among its members.
I became involved with Joshua's heart because I wanted to make a difference in this world and Joshua's heart is the only organization that allows children under 15 or 16.
What can I say about Joshua that hasn't already been said.....
He is a little kid with a big heart and an even bigger dream to stomp out hunger one family at a time, and he's doing just that! I'm very proud of Joshua. May God continue to bless him as he continues to be a blessings to others!
Joshua's Heart Foundation has been doing wonderful work in the community for several years. The foundation continues to provide assistance to very needy families with little or no food. Almost every weekend there is some type of event. A food distribution, backpack program, a group of volunteers planting a community garden etc. With little to no overhead the foundation continues to make an impact.
If you are looking for an opportunity to have your children volunteer in a safe friendly organization with other families that are interested in stomping out hunger this foundation is for you.
Keep up the great work Joshua and team. All of you are truly making a difference!
I was introduced to Joshua by a friend two years ago, and as soon as I met him and heard about his charity, this young man inspired me. He is soft spoken and very polite, but beneath that understated persona, lies an extremely focused and hard working individual. His dedication to stomp out hunger in South Florida and the world, is so contagious that his charity has grown exponentially in the last few years, delivering thousands of pounds of food to hungry children and families, one family at a time.
In a private conversation not too long ago, he confided in me telling me that he wanted to meet President Obama so that he could tell him about his plan to end world hunger. Somehow, I am convinced that that dream is not too far from becoming a reality. Joshua's Heart is in my opinion one of the most unique and heart warming charities in existence. I am blessed to be part of it and will continue to spread the word. Thank you Joshua :)
I am wildly impressed with Joshua and the work that his foundation is doing to stomp out hunger here in Miami. It's amazing to see someone so young so willing to give back to the community. Joshua's compassion is contagious and I encourage everyone to learn about this foundation and do what they can to help.
It makes me think that if a child was able to have the heart to help others at such a young age. We as adults should be able to find it in our hearts to help others. We as a society have gotten away from caring about others, we need to take a step back and care for others.
Joshua's Heart foundation has been helping thousands of homeless,hungry,needy,and low income families. The fact that Joshua being a child with such a big heart is a blessing from god for all the people who benefited from his organization. I truly hope his dream of spreading worldwide will become a reality.
It is my third year with the foundation, and it goes beyond to help others. It mostly consists of young people, but is very efficient and on task.
While serving on the board it's important to recruit some volunteers. My whole family are recruited and i love to give food out to the needy. I think Joshua has a big heart and influences us all in a great way.
Lets feed more hungry people with the love of giving we all want to share.
My daughter and I became involved with Joshua's Heart last summer in order to fullfill her middle school honor society service hours requirement. However, we enjoyed the experience so much, she has gone well beyond the number of hours that were required and the rest of the family has now gotten involved. My husband and I had spoken many times before about getting our children involved in community work so that they may grow to understand a broader view of the world around them and develop empathy for others. However, it is not easy to find an organization that welcomes young children to get involve and not only watch, but actually do hands on and lead the charitable work. That is Joshua's Heart. Founded by a young boy, who still leads it today, with the support of his mother and family, Joshua's Heart invites children of all ages to take part. Even my 2-3 year old helped us fill grocery bags at one of the last food distributions!
Joshuas Heart Foundation has been true to their word in helping communities combat hunger. They called to ask if our organization would like to distribute beverages to our clients, we said yes, and the delivered! Looking forward to working with a Foundation that keeps it word, when they say they are going to do something, they do it.
