History
Helping Hands was founded in 1976 by volunteers under the leadership of Bob Reeves, the pastor at First Presbyterian Church in Rockwall. The story is told that volunteers gathered items for Christmas for needy children in the area. Then household goods and clothing were collected. When Bob ran out of room in the trunk of his car, Claudette Johnson stored items in her garage.
