Supporting Community Health: Selfless Hands Foundation's Mission in Action
Introduction
In times of crisis, the importance of community support becomes paramount. The Selfless Hands Foundation, dedicated to aiding individuals, families, and homeless communities, has recently received a generous donation from OG&E, comprising essential supplies like hand sanitizers, wipes, and masks. In this blog post, we delve into the educational aspects of community health during emergencies and how the Selfless Hands Foundation is making a difference in Northeast OKC.
The Impact of Flu, COVID, and Other Sicknesses
As we navigate through flu, COVID, and other sickness seasons, the need for proactive health measures is crucial. These illnesses can disproportionately affect vulnerable communities, making access to sanitation and protective equipment paramount in preventing the spread.
Selfless Hands Foundation's Emergency Crisis Relief Programs
The Emergency Crisis Relief and Disaster Response programs initiated by the Selfless Hands Foundation serve as a lifeline during emergencies. The Selfless Hands Crisis Hub, Emergency Food Assistance, Emergency Rapid Re-Housing Assistance, and Emergency Rent and Utilities Assistance are designed to mobilize resources swiftly, providing immediate relief to those in need.
The Role of Hand Sanitizers, Wipes, and Masks

The recent donation from OG&E of hand sanitizers, wipes, and masks aligns with these essential health practices. These supplies not only protect against the flu, COVID, and other illnesses but also contribute to overall community well-being.
