"Help Achieve New Direction and Skills" is the H.A.N.D.S. Auxiliary motto. Through the Auxiliary's many successful endeavors, they have impacted the lives of countless individuals with disabilities.
The Auxiliary is comprised of active members who sponsor various activities throughout the year. Their major event is an annual golf tournament and auction. The golf tournament is held the first Monday of June with the auction being the Sunday evening
prior to the golf tournament.
The proceeds of these events are donated to HDC. Over the years, the
H.A.N.D.S.'s donations have allowed the Center to purchase wheelchairs, vans, production equipment, computers, an accessible playground, and much more. In 2004, the Auxiliary handed
over a check that brought their total donations to the Center to over $1
million!
In addition to their fundraising efforts, the Auxiliary also runs two Next-to-New Sales each year for participants of HDC to purchase clothing, jewelry, and other items at low or no cost. They also serve Halloween cookies in October and buy
hats and gloves for individuals in the winter.

The H.A.N.D.S. Auxiliary always welcomes new, enthusiastic members. For more information, please contact HDC at 563-391-4834.
Thank you to everyone who made the 2008 H.A.N.D.S. Auxiliary Auction and Golf Outing a huge success. Your support of this event is essential to it's success.
