Project Hand-Up is the effort of a Leadership Green Bay Class of 2013 small group, working together within the community to develop connections, gather resources and complete a project that contributes to the overall good of the Greater Green Bay area.This group chose to work with Freedom House Ministries because of their long respected and well documented successes assisting families out of homelessness. Specifically this project involves:

*Reflooring their resource area-classroom/library/childcare mulitpurpose space
*Providing new tables,chairs, and organizational pieces to enhance functionality
*Upgrade their computer systems- new laptops & large screen projection TV
*Repaint & update interior of classroom/library/childcare
*Supply supplemental resources to support occupational training, parenting, GED preparation,parenting and child development materials, personal and professional self improvement resources,spiritual encouragement& motivational materials.
We are asking for public participation in this project. The public can assisst in various ways:
*Contribute to our Capital campaign-fund raising to be coordinated March’13
*Provide “in kind donations” of time or business services
*Donate gently used or new materials consistent with Freedom House values objectives and mission-personal,professional,family development etc.
*Spread word of our efforts,and encourage others to contact us! Happy to share more ways that you can become involved in our work to better the lives being changed at Freedom House and support the dedicated crew so tirelessly doing awesome work at Freedom House.
