My Nonprofit Reviews

"I want a job where I can love on people," I was telling Dr. Dhanda during a doctor appointment last year, "...especially people most in need."

"You should come join us at the Elijah House," she replied, "...the residents there could use your love and energy."

Since then, I have experienced and witnessed healing, hope and unconditional love in action through the network of volunteers at Worldwide Healing Hands (WWHH). I have watched our local homeless residents receive medical services from wound care to a referral for a healing surgery, to a life-saving ER visit, thanks to Dr. Dhanda and her skilled team of doctors. I've observed compassionate social workers connect residents to the practical resources they need, the medical insurance or mental health services they need, or to a primary care physician they've never had. I've been touched by the RNs and LVNs who greet and lovingly invite each resident to tell their story and share their need while checking their vitals.

And me? I get to welcome each resident who enters to the "intake" table. I get to treat them as a brother and sister as I get their name, age, DOB and general info. And in return, I've received their friendship, their gratitude, their love. From in-take...to out-pouring.

When Elijah House residents arrive for WWHH care, they leave with love, dignity and the healing they need, whether it's physically, emotionally, mentally or spiritually. I get to be a small part of a great non-profit that is making a difference locally and globally in the world.

Thank you Dr. Dhanda and WWHH.
