Hands4Hope program ends at 6:30 PM sharp. Prompt pickup is vital. Our staff have other work and personal obligations that begin at 6:30pm, so if your child has not been picked up by 6:30pm, Hands 4 Hope LA incurs extra costs to pay for supervision past that time.

Please consider the weather and traffic conditions. It is a good idea to create an alternative pick-up plan with your neighbors, relatives or friends to ensure on-time pick-up.


Any pickup after 6:30pm will incur a late fee, after a grace period of 5 minutes.

Fee: $5 for pickup between 6:35 and 6:40.
$10 for pickup between 6:41 and 6:50pm.

Payment is expected at time of pick up. If that is not possible, then payment will be due at "drop off" the next day. If not paid, students will not be allowed to attend the program. The program manager has sole discretion to waive fees in the event of an emergency or uncontrollable situation.

Repetitive late pick-up or non-payment of late fees may result in suspension of Hands4Hope LA After School Program.
