We are now planning our 23rd Annual Charity Golf Outing, and we need your support. Since many of the people we assist live at or near the poverty level, we do not charge for our services. We rely upon the generosity of the local community to carry out our work. We are the last resort for many of our older and disabled neighbors and without the proceeds from this event, many we serve would go without the help they need!

Hannah's House is hosting its annual International Dessert Event and Silent Auction at Trinity Church on October 18. 2025. We're having a wide variety of desserts from around the world, baked and donated by some of our friends in the community. Featured countries include France, Bhutan, USA, Italy, and more. We're excited to try them! Proceeds from this event benefit homeless, pregnant women in the Lansing community. Hannah's House houses four women at a time and provides resources like diapers and baby clothes to other families in need in our community, but this is only possible with your help.
