About Harky's Heroes For Kids
Our Story
This 501(c)(3) non-profit was formed in memory of Abram Altschule. Abe was a risk management recruiter in New York City who worked as "Harky the Clown" on weekends because he enjoyed making kids laugh and liked bringing joy to their lives. The mission of Harky's Heroes for Kids is to support children in our local community who are in need. Some kids are homeless, live in shelters, have little clothing, no food to eat, or other significant issues that most of us have never experience. It's up to us to give back and help those in need!!
We believe in making a difference through direct action, community engagement, and donating food, clothing and other essential items. Every donation we recevie helps us continue our mission to create lasting positive change.
We would be grateful if you'd consider making a donation to support our good cause. Each donation will directly impact a child in our local area.

Giving Back to the Community
Whether it’s sponsoring the Kidney Foundation Pediatric Holiday Party, local Adopt-A-Family programs, fundraisers for sick children, or donating thousands of food items, clothing, and essentials, our goal is to help make the lives of kids who are struggling a little easier and to make them happier the best way we can.
