Program Overview
|
Project HELP is a community-based program supported by donations of food, money, clothing, and household goods from community groups, individuals, organizations and businesses. |
|
The program is designed to meet the needs of students whose environmental conditions may affect their general welfare. |
|
To be eligible for aid from Project HELP families must have children who live in and are currently enrolled and attending school in the Apache Junction School District. |
|
Aid is distributed, according to need and as funds allow, to eligible families following a determination of eligibility by the Project HELP staff. Project HELP requires families who receive assistance to volunteer time to perform appropriate community service. Where volunteer service could create a hardship, monetary reimbursement is accepted. |
|
Project HELP encourages families to become self-reliant. It is an emergency, short-term source of aid. |
