NOAHH (Neighbors Offering A Helping Hand)

NOAHH is a partnership between community members and Outagamie County Department of Health and Human Services to assist DHHS clients meet their unmet needs. Donations of clothes, household items, services and financial support go a long way toward improving the quality of life for many families. Organizations may participate at any level of commitment. There is not a minimum requirement for volunteer hours or donations. When there is a need the NOAHH coordinator contacts the partner who will spread the word throughout their membership and collect donations. While not all requests can be filled with new items, partner members may have gently used items in their own homes that are exactly what the child/family needs. For example, the worker discovers that the children do not have beds and are sleeping on the floor. A quick request to the NOAHH Partner often turns up a set of bunk beds or a crib.
