Connect with HandsOn – Columbus Underground

Columbus Foundation Community Research and Grants Management Officers get updates from HandsOn Central Ohio staff, one of our Five Nonprofits to Watch 2016.

On the surface, HandsOn Central Ohio is the great connector: Through its 211 hotline, it links people in need with those who can help, whether it’s food, emergency shelter, or assistance with other issues.

But beneath the surface, HandsOn is much more than the community’s primary referral service. It is an increasingly sophisticated organization that collects information helping social and human service organizations across the community better respond to current needs—and anticipate those in the future.

The Columbus Foundation is working to capture The Spirit of Columbus through images that showcase the determination, dedication, and commitment of people in our smart + open community. Be sure to check out columbusfoundation.org and follow along on Facebook as we continue to celebrate The Spirit of Columbus through photography. You can also tune in on Instagram.
