"If We Show Up, We Show Out"

The Helping Hand Mission in Southeast Raleigh suffered a tragic fire Sunday morning, March 1, 2026.

Thankfully, Raleigh firefighters were on scene to put out the fire with no injuries; however, the Mission suffered major damage.

Mrs. Sylvia Wiggins founded the Helping Hand Mission in 1973 to assist families in need with food, clothing, furniture, and shelter. The Mission also offers 16 programs and events, all free of charge, to help children, teens, elderly, homeless, handicapped, disabled, low-income, and victims of fire become self-sufficient.

We are working with the Helping Hand Mission on these immediate needs:

If you know of any organizations, churches, or people that can assist, please reach out to the onsite contact:
