The Heart and Hand Fund began its work to support feminist women activists in the Balkans in 1999. The efforts that Heart and Hand funded in the Balkans are self defined as feminist and most morphed out of the peace movement in the Balkans in the mid '90's. We funded groups that are inclusive and working with women from all the varied ethnic groups in their region. The community based efforts supported both immediate as well as long term community needs, often in underserved and under resourced communities.
When Marta retired in 2021, our efforts moved to support emerging community based efforts in the United States -- in particular the Little Eagle Community. Little Eagle is a small indigenous community located on Standing Rock lands in rural South Dakota.
Our work in Little Eagle, SD began in 2020. Together we have provided holiday gift cards, holiday stockings, school supplies and backpacks, PPE for Covid-19, cold weather items and a monthly pantry for the community of 350 adults and children.
