How Can I Help?

1. Email us at taylorshelpinghands@yahoo.com with any suggestions, ideas, or concerns

2. Donate items for the Hospital Bags

3. Donate your time by delivering bags to the hospital

4. Donate office supplies, such as copy paper, stamps, printer ink, envelopes

5. Pray for families and friends everywhere who are grieving the loss of a loved one

6. Any items donated to Taylor's Helping Hands which cannot be used will be donated to the Ronald McDonald House, which gives free housing to families with loved ones in the ICU. Many families travel to a hospital and need housing until their loved one is stable enough to be moved to their hometown hospital. These families are often unprepared and need the basic items which we provide in the hospital care bags. Therefore, all surplus donations to Taylor's Helping Hands will go to a local Ronald McDonald House. Tom and Teresa stayed at the Ronald McDonald House next to Palmetto Richland Hospital while Taylor was in the ICU, and they are eternally grateful for everything the Ronald McDonald House provided.
