Our history
Founded in 2022 by Mao Lee, a seasoned business development professional, Hands of Agape operates as
a 501c3 entity, committed to addressing the unmet needs of skilled nursing residents.
Prior to establishing Hands of Agape, Mao worked with skilled nursing facilities across California, where she observed that a significant portion of residents required long-term care—over 77,500 individuals currently call California’s skilled nursing facilities home.
Recognizing the urgent need for support, Mao developed a deep connection with the residents and felt compelled to do more. She aspired to be a companion to them, but realized that one person alone could not create the impact she envisioned. This inspired her to launch Hands of Agape.
With the contribution and support of our community, we can accomplish more together and make a positive difference in the lives of skilled nursing residents.
Our Mission
Hands of Agape is a non-profit (501c3) organization dedicated to enriching the lives of skilled nursing residents in California by showing God's love through the provision of goods, services, and resources. Our mission is to enhance the quality of life for these residents, addressing their unique needs and fostering a sense of compassion and community.
