Hats to Our Health

Helpertunity participates as part of Walden University's Global Day of Service, held annually in early October.  Helpertunity offers an adaptive alternative to the other Worldwide One-Day event offerings, by providing a self-paced and online / distance-participation option.

Legacy of Love

Often times, the hobbies and creative skills that people have are handed down from generation to generation, as a Legacy of Love and Learning.  Helpertunity honors those elders who have passed on their talents to others, and invites Helpertunity's Friends and Contributors to post "Legacy of Love and Learning" Memorials to Helpertunity's Facebook Page, or submit them for inclusion on this Helpertunity Project Page.  Send e-mails and photo attachments to:  Eileen@Helpertunity.org.

Kid & Eco Friendly Creations

After 30 years as a school teacher, and a busy day at the theme parks enjoying her "retirement job," Helpertunity's Corporate Secretary, Dorothy Gill,  still enjoys a bit of volunteer time.  She has a specialty for applying her talents to "creative retail" efforts; by providing fundraising resources and programs that reach out to kids and appreciate the environment.

Fiesta Foundation

Gabriel Callejas, husband of Helpertunity's Founder Eileen Callejas, was the first business to step up and support Helpertunity's Mission, but it was not the first time the family restaurant owner had reached out to elderly, disabled, and homeless persons in his community.

Bottle Brick Builders Guild

In 2020 Helpertunity realized that all of its kit-packing projects were producing an excessive amount of plastic bags. So, the charity began looking for fun ways to recycle and upcycle waste plastics. Today, volunteers help hand pack plastic bottles with clean, dry plastic bags and wrappers. After turning these bottles into bricks they are used to make practical and decorative items.
