I am a student and want to participate with the Hanan Foundation, is it free?

Yes! All Foundation sponsored events and activities are free to attend.

What if I need transportation to an event or activity?

At the moment, the Waco Hanan Foundation does not provide transportation to or from events.

What is a “Community check-in?”

Community check -ins are personalized, informal nurturing roundtable discussions. With the support of the foundation, students are expected to center themselves with a mindfulness moment to reflect on personal concerns, growth, and opportunities. Check-ins will have small conversation starter topic that encourage self-empowerment and unity among participants. They are meant to provide a safe space for girls to connect and build friendships.

Why are volunteer hours required?

A vital part of the Hanan Foundation is exposing girls to the needs of the Waco community. We will host monthly volunteer activities that students may choose to participate in. All volunteer events are chaperoned and completed as a group. Volunteer activities are also strongly encouraged for students looking to build strong resumes and character.
