Me and my four kids have served with lhbh for 5 years now and we love it. I especially like how it empowers my kids to lead by serving others. They learned how important it is to put others before themselves and how it can really make someone’s day. Lhbh has grown so much over the years and it’s a blessing to be apart of something that brings our community together. The college tours have shown them how many different options they have after high school and they got a first hand look at the college experience as well as resources that will help them with tuition. Check this group out for yourself. You won’t be disappointed
When you desire what’s best for your children and for them to be surrounded by like minded individuals or those that’s going in the direction you would like them to go you go searching for other avenues. LHBH has helped my girls tremendously with character development. Watching them as they serve and give with a smile on their face is priceless. I also love the HBCU tours. It gives them goals to push towards and broadens their choice of where they want to go. I’m grateful for their involvement in LHBH and their exposure to positive leadership.
As a board member and the mother of children who have volunteered with Little Hands, Big Hearts, I can confidently say that this organization is transformative—not just for the children who serve but for the families who support them.
Little Hands, Big Hearts is more than a volunteering platform; it’s a movement to empower young people and their families to think beyond themselves. My children, and countless others, are living proof that when we pour into our little people, they grow into big-hearted leaders. I am proud to serve on the board of such an impactful organization and grateful for the opportunities it has provided to my family and our community.
I’ve volunteered with this organization since I was 9 and now I am 14. Through this organization, I have learned how to lead by example and step up when help is needed. I’ve also gained a deeper understanding of what it means to have empathy. Seeing the impact our service has on others taught me to truly care about the challenges people face and to use my time and talents to make a difference.
This organization has truly prepared me to think beyond myself and has inspired me to carry its mission into everything I do. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to grow as a leader and make a meaningful impact in their community.
My experience with Little Hands Big Hearts has been both enlightening and rewarding. The organization's dedication to supporting youth in so many ways is truly inspiring. From acts of service to career exploration and strengthening families, LHBH goes beyond meeting immediate needs. LHBH invests in long-term growth and community building. Witnessing the positive impact on children and families and contributing to such meaningful work has been a true joy
I absolutely love everything about Little Hands, Big Hearts and what this incredible organization stands for. Their mission to empower and uplift the youth is so valuable and truly a necessity in our community. From providing tutoring services and volunteer opportunities to taking kids to games, they create experiences and opportunities that leave a lasting impact.
My son has had an amazing time with them—he’s volunteered at an event, attended a Jaguars football game, and learned so much through their live sessions featuring professionals sharing knowledge and advice. These experiences are shaping his future in the best way, helping him make informed decisions and grow as an individual.
Little Hands, Big Hearts.. is truly making a difference, and I can’t recommend them enough to families looking for positive, meaningful involvement for their kids!
Being apart of LHBH has been an eye opening experience. Not only am I able to learn about my community but I can also help improve it in a meaningful way. Along with that LHBH has opened many opportunities for me to explore what life after high school may be like. This program is its own little family where everyone is learning and teaching each other. If you haven't checked it out yet you definitely should.
I used to work with LHBH as a volunteer back when I was in high school and even had the opportunity to be “promoted” from volunteer status to having a more formal role in the organization! Unfortunately I am not as active/ engaged with them as I wish I could be, but certainly not for lack of enthusiasm and passion towards their mission! I am currently working in the social work profession now as a case manager and through my time serving with LHBH, I feel so much more equipped now to work in a leadership role to care for and assist families in need, regardless of their backgrounds or my own biases. Through serving with this org for over 3 years as a teenager, I was taught care coordination skills, humility and open-mindedness, the importance of unity, and how to really be a servant leader. They offered me the chance to organize a “fundraiser” at school to raise donations for our downtown homeless population, and then stand outside and offer those men/ women/ kids the very items I helped to collect to serve them and their families. To any young child, teen, or adult who has the opportunity, I would gladly recommend serving with Little Hands Big Hearts, without a doubt! Thank you so much Dr. Nikki for your big heart, for the youth, for the community, and for people like me❤️
Through Little Hands Big Hearts, I witnessed firsthand the power of collective action and the difference it can make in the lives of others. Seeing the gratitude and hope in the eyes of those we helped was truly humbling and served as a poignant reminder of the importance of empathy and compassion.

Not only will you be contributing to a worthy cause, but you'll also have an amazing time doing it. The organization's infectious energy and commitment to creating a positive experience for both volunteers and those they serve make for an unforgettable adventure.
