On Saturday, May 17th, 2025, Harmonie Hearts brought its mission of compassion and nourishment to life once again—this time at Regan Inn Shelter in Indianapolis. Between 1pm and 3pm, the space was filled not just with food, but with love, laughter, and the warm spirit of community.
The goal was simple: make sure no one at Regan Inn went to bed hungry. And thanks to the tireless support of volunteers, partners, and generous donors, we were able to serve 178 families—each one receiving a food pack filled with essential items meant to bring comfort, nutrition, and dignity.
A Shelter, a Safe Space—and a Stop for Healing
Regan Inn is more than just a shelter. It’s a place where people gather while rebuilding their lives. It’s a stopover between survival and stability. And on this day, it became a station of grace.
Harmonie Hearts has always believed in meeting people where they are, and this event was a beautiful reminder of the power of simply showing up.
As families lined up, there was no rush, no noise—just quiet gratitude. Some shared their stories. Others simply smiled. A few cried, overwhelmed that strangers would come out on a Saturday to care for them.
“You don’t know what this means to us,” one mother whispered, cradling her toddler.
“I was worried I wouldn’t have anything for the weekend.”
What We Gave
Each family received a well-packed parcel that included:
- Dry staples like rice, maize flour, and pasta
- Canned goods and protein sources
- Cooking oil
- Toiletries and basic hygiene items
- A few snacks for the children—because we believe in feeding joy, too
But what we gave went far beyond food. We gave reassurance. We gave kindness. We gave families a reason to smile that day.
The Power of Showing Up
Our volunteers, some traveling across the city, came with sleeves rolled up and hearts wide open. They didn’t just hand out food—they listened, they encouraged, and they reminded every person at Regan Inn that they are not forgotten.
One volunteer reflected:
“It’s not just what we gave—it’s what we received. The stories, the strength of these families—it moved us deeply.”
What’s Next?
We know that this one day won’t solve everything. But it mattered. And for those 178 families, it was a reminder that people care. That help is out there. That hope is still alive.
At Harmonie Hearts, we don’t lead with noise—we lead with presence. And wherever there is hunger—of the stomach or of the spirit—we will continue to show up.
