There’s something magical about the holiday season. It’s not just the lights or the music—it’s the way communities come together, how people reach out to lift each other up. That’s exactly what the Kellin Foundation’s Hands of Hope gift drive is all about. This tradition is a way for us all to join hands and give back in a way that truly lights up the hearts and smiles of deserving children and adults. .

In 1940 Mental Health Greensboro started Hands of Hope (originally coined “Operation Santa Claus”), and since then, this tradition has brought smiles to countless children and families, as well as patients in psychiatric care at Central Regional Hospital. This year, we’re honored to continue the tradition, ensuring that those we serve feel the warmth and generosity of our community and the joyful spirit of the holiday season.

October 11th was an incredible morning at the Hope Hub! We are beyond grateful to the Community Foundation of Greater Greensboro for selecting the Kellin Foundation as the beneficiary of this year’s Cynthia Doyle Day of Service.

We’re thrilled to welcome two exceptional clinicians, Deliah Mooney, LCSWA, and Angel Robles, LCSWA, to the Kellin Foundation family. Both bring a deep commitment to supporting children and families through their unique experiences and expertise.

As we wrap up another successful year of Shea's Chase, we want to take a moment to express our gratitude to all of our sponsors who made this event possible. Your generous support is appreciated and is essential to our mission of raising awareness for mental health and suicide prevention.
