What makes Hearts & Hands unique is that we not only want to help lower income families to own a home, but we also want to help them feel welcome. We want them to feel a sense of belonging to a community that they will then want to help build up. With the help of the community, they will receive ongoing support well beyond the initial acquisition of a house.  - Fr. John McCaslin

Why are we different?

---

• We are here to stay and we are committed to the long-term growth, stability, and safety of the Near West Indianapolis Community.
• We are strategically focused on abandoned houses to eliminate undesirable properties.
• We are controlling costs by utilizing volunteers, local labor, and local suppliers.
• We are collaborating with existing neighborhood organizations to maximize our community outreach and long-term success.
• We are providing long-term mentoring programs to support the new homeowners to ensure neighborhood stabilization and growth.

As a volunteer-operated organization, the majority of our donations are used directly toward the rehabilitation of homes we purchase in the Near West neighborhood of Indianapolis. With your donations, Hearts & Hands of Indiana is able to turn Near West houses into homeownership opportunities, one abandoned property at a time. Help a family attain the dream of homeownership by donating to Hearts & Hands of Indiana today!
