Most of us don't understand what it’s like having to rely on others for something as simple as a ride to the doctor or grocery store, and Helping Hands of Yuma is one of the only local nonprofits that provide many services to seniors for FREE. More than 80% of the people we serve are low income or below, and things like free transportation means not having to choose between buying groceries, paying for a prescription, or the cost of a taxi.
