South Florida Lending Hands is always about a positive result! Clean-up/fix-up efforts, welfare activities that benefit people in need and animals. The group is always willing to take on what seem like impossible projects that result in "doing good". I would like to see this group recognized as a Great Nonprofit in order to help increase their volunteer and donor base. I am very proud to be a supporter of South Florida Lending Hands!

As an artist, Lending Hands has created art installations in my community so I and others can display our work. Artists in the area have fewer and fewer places to display their work. I am so thankful for the opportunity that was provided to myself and other artists.

I adopted a dog named Mica through savasato who is now the love of my life. The process from Puerto Rico to Miami was done with so much love and caring. Can never thank them enough for what this organization did for me.

South Florida lending hands gets things done!! They are constantly on the front lines helping animals in need as well as local community support. The creator Frank Polanco has personally assisted me in bringing back a rescue to the states. I encourage you to support this non profit and stay up to date on their socials with how you can continue to help.

I have collaborated with South Florida Lending Hands on a variety of projects over several years. In each case the team was true to their word and performed way above expectations. It is a pleasure to know SFLH staff. Their dedication and commitment to our community and our four legged friends is exceptional. When they say they will do something, you can rest assured that it is done! Our world would be a much better place if everyone would perform with their strong sense of integrity. Hats off to South Florida Lending Hands. Jorg H.

South Florida Lending Hands puts every ounce of heart and soul into what they do . The combination of art, time, people and their connections have saved, supported and comforted our four legged friends all over this country. They have been at the forefront of hurricane and other disaster relief. Frank Polanco has worked tirelessly for Save a Sato in Puerto Rico and helping Louisiana, Texas, California and Florida.
Where ever there has been a need they have been there to help! Truly a worthy cause to support.

This organization does so much for the animal population. Dedication, compassion, diligence, responsibility, transparency, and honesty are some of the attributes that define it; and put it well above the rest. They are proof of what true vocations are made of. I will forever be thankful for placing one of my rescues in an outstanding, caring & loving home. Truly amazed with Frank’s devotion and selfless involvement. Another angel on earth who gives us hope and demonstrates there is still much love in the world.

They can't have a better name! Sometimes what needs to get a good deed done is not just money --but time, experience, and an extra set of hands.

Trying to help a homeless pup and her daddy to get back on their feet (and back to their home in Puerto Rico), a friend connected me to Frank and the South Florida Lending Hands. The good deed we were trying to accomplish was not small, specially in these times of COVID.

I truly don't know if we would have been able to get things done if it wasn't for Frank's expertise and tremendous help. He generously gave his time and help with transportation more than once, always with a smile and a upbeat attitude.

We are really glad they were there to help us!

There’s no one I know who is more giving and passionate about the charities Frank Polanco is involved in. If he could be cloned, this world would be a better place. Unending energy and devotion gives this organization top status in my book!
