Inspired Hearts and Hands

Mindy Schnitgen

Inspired Hearts and Hands (IH2) is a community-wide coalition of inspired hearts and hands collectively focused on addressing economic hardship and food insecurity through food box distributions, community events, holiday angel trees, educational enrichment programs, and student appreciation activities.

Inspired Hearts and Hands (IH2) was founded by Mindy Schnitgen in 2012.  This grass-roots program sought to provide food to families facing poverty in in her local neighborhood of Mars Pennsylvania and surrounding communities. As friends, neighbors, and community members joined her, the initiative grew rapidly to also include holiday gifts. 

In 2019, IH2 incorporated as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization. This program continued to grow in reach and scope until it was no longer feasible to run the program from her garage, home, and borrowed office space. It now operates from a large facility in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania.
