Why support HCAF?  Your community action fund (HCAF) works hard to provide short-term emergency financial assistance to residents requesting assistance through the town department, Holliston Youth and Family Services.  The type of assistance that has been awarded over the past year includes helping cover utility and phone bills, heating bills, car payments, and Christmas gifts for needy families.  Emergency assistance has been given for help with insurance costs, school lunch bills, rent, mortgage, and health bills for example. Additionally, we promote community involvement activities for our youth.  High school and middle school students work with parents on the committee to raise funds and boost awareness of the need for emergency support of our residents in need, as well as working towards community betterment projects.

PROVIDING HELP – How does a resident ask for assistance?  There is a determination of need, performed by the Youth and Family Services Office of Holliston.  If you are a community member in need of emergency assistance, please contact Holliston Youth and Family Services at (508) 429-0620 or at https://www.townofholliston.us/youth-and-family-services

How does HCAF do this?  Donations! In past years, HCAF has conducted direct donation campaigns that have provided thousands of dollars for Holliston Families in need. The HCAF greatly appreciates the donations of individuals, as well as generous businesses like Vesta, Fiske’s, Lamont Plumbing and the Holliston Dental Associates.  With your help, the Holliston Community Action Fund looks forward to making a difference again this year. Donations are gratefully accepted in any amount at any time, online, at https://hollistoncommunityaction.org.
