Many Hands Foundation
is a California nonprofit corporation recognized as a public charity
under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Many Hands
was created and is staffed by volunteers who have organized and
participated in mission work teams to South Africa in recent years.
Our purpose is to continue launching and supporting volunteer work
teams locally, nationally and internationally.
Our founding leaders, Mack and Mary Alice McKinney have been leading
groups of people to many places around the world, for various purposes,
including work teams, since 1969. Since 1992 they have led work
teams to villages in the Mpumalanga Pr ovince,
Republic of South Africa: Swallow’s Nest in 1992, Tjakastad
in 2002, Hartebeeskop in 2004, and Silindile in 2006.
The Many Hands community is not limited to the
founders, officers and directors of Many Hands Foundation. Who we
are includes the many work team volunteers, their families, friends
and supporters. Who we are includes all the African people who welcomed
us, fed us, worked with us and celebrated with us. Who we are is
everybody who bought a brick or donated a dollar or wrote a check.
Who we are is Many Hands doing many small and large jobs, coming
together as a growing multinational and multicultural community
of kindred minds and spirits. Who we are can include you –
are you ready to join us?
