About HOLIA

Our Mission: To assist people in need.

Hands of Light in Action (HOLIA) is an 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that is very simply focused on assisting people in need.  Anyone that shares that goal is welcome to join us in this endeavor to improve our world.

Brief History

Nancy Malone, PT, founded HOLIA after Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans in 2005.  She has essentially devoted her life’s energies to assisting people in need, with her greatest passion being assistance in recovery from disasters.

Current Project

Currently, the organization is focused on the needs that have arisen as a result of the devastating earthquake on January 14, 2010 in the Caribbean nation of Haiti.  We are accepting volunteers, both with MEDICAL and NON-MEDICAL backgrounds & skill sets to provide assistance to the many people that are in need.  There is an especially strong need for physical therapists, occupational therapists, orthotists, prosthetists, certified therapy assistants, therapy technicians, therapy students and O&P technicians. If you or someone you know would like to volunteer, please fill out our volunteer form to tell us about yourself & to receive more information from HOLIA about current needs and up-to-date information on any opportunities.
