HeartLand Hands is committed to strengthening our community by providing food assistance to residents of North Mississippi. As of 2011, over 9,000 families and 30,000 individuals have been served. Our administrative costs are relatively low as HeartLand Hands is staffed with 12 to 15 volunteers per day devoting a total of some 500 hours per month. Our facilities are provided through the partnership with HeartLand Church and our office equipment is paid in full. 
No cost is ever accessed to the client.
