Thank you, Cornerstone Bank!

2/16/2020

 
People Helping People volunteers staffed the Cornerstone Bank parking lots downtown today and raised a record-breaking $575 in donations.  The weather was lovely and traffic plentiful.  We thank everyone who paid $5 to park and help support this very worthy cause.  And thank you, Cornerstone Bank, for allowing us this fundraising opportunity.  

​Cornerstone Bank has historically allowed various charities to man the parking lots on weekends; benefiting People Helping People and other charities on many occasions.  

We're #3, & Proud of it!

We are so delighted that the Eureka Springs Independent chose to run an article about our booth at Hobbies and Homestead!  We not only have a new, larger location within the building, we've also steady been creeping up the ranking to #3 out of over 70 vendors.  Come visit us at 2100 Van Buren and check out our fresh new look.  Remember, each purchase helps provide much-needed prescriptions for Carroll County residents.

It was a packed house last night at the Cathouse Lounge with Cocktails for a Cause benefiting People Helping People.  Thanks to all who attended, and especially to the Cathouse staff who outdid themselves with hospitality, fabulous hors d'oeuvres and delightful drinks.  The event raised $542 for PHP prescription assistance and an equal amount for our Cocktails partner, Eureka Springs Downtown Network.  

Special thanks to those who generously donated raffle items; the New Moon Spa/Crescent Hotel for the $100 Spa gift certificate, Wild Blue Yonder for the gorgeous Dakine Messenger bag, Wendy Hartmann for 3 personal training sessions, and Brews for their great decorative gift bag with gift certificate, Brew's mug and bottle of wine! 

PHP  has so far in 2019 provided more than 800 prescriptions for Carroll County residents.

Shout out to the Carroll County Foundation!

Susan Hopkins and Roberta Kirby of the People Helping People Board and Tim Ensley from the Office of Human Concern accept a $3000 check from the Carroll County Foundation as part of their "Giving Tree" Endowment Program.  Janell Robertson of the Carroll County Community Foundation says "This is a perfect testament to the power of an endowment. Donors give their tax-deductible donations, those donations are invested and grow and give back every year. The donor’s dollar continues working in and for the county, giving back to a variety of nonprofits – those that focus on critical care as well the arts and education."
Wow!  What a fantastic organization;  People Helping People is delighted to be a recipient of 2019 Giving Tree Grant!  
​​A big boost just as we get into the season where the need in our community is greater than ever! 

Many thanks to those wonderful Presbyterians!

PHP board member Francie Russell accepts check for $1300 on behalf of People Helping People from Linda Shafer and Terri Hegna of Holiday Island Presbyterian Church.  Nile Carrothers, President of the Flint Street Food Bank Board accepted their check.

The annual Spaghetti Dinner Fundraiser was a huge success, benefiting 3 local charities; People Helping People, Backpack Program and ECHO Village.  

 We are so grateful to the Holiday Island Presbyterians for once again choosing PHP as a beneficiary of their annual fundraiser.  It takes the coordinated efforts of many, many folk to pull off such a spectacular event. Heartfelt thanks to all involved!

Join us for the best spaghetti on the Island!

Yippie!  Today is the debut of the new People Helping People booth at Hobbies and Homestead Market, 2100 E. Van Buren in Eureka Springs.

We call ourselves The Flamingo House.   We're just getting started, and will keep adding new, fun, interesting things all the time. 

Buying from our booth is another great way to support People Helping People. The money we make from item sales will be donated to purchase medicines for Carroll County residents as part of the People Helping People prescription assistance program. 

Please come check us out!

Speaking Out!

3/17/2019

 
One of our founding members, Susan Hopkins, spoke today about the People Helping People program at the Community of Christ Church in Berryville, Arkansas.  We wanted to share the wonderful feedback Sue received from her presentation.

"Sue - thanks so much for joining us today!  I think we had a very positive conversation that helped educate us on the value of your program.  When I went out in the kitchen, a couple of our members were talking about how it seemed to be a good program, appropriate controls were in place to prevent abuse, etc.  I think it’s also important to note that it’s a bridge for your clients, not an ongoing solution.

Again, thank you for coming.  It says TONS when people are willing to come out and educate the community, both about the program itself, and about your personal passion for it."

Dale Hunter, Community of Christ Church
​Berryville, AR 
​

We love talking about People Helping People and spreading the word!  To schedule a PHP presentation at your church or organization, please contact Susan Hopkins at 479.253.9381.
