YOUR JOURNEY STARTS HERE

Gifted Hands is our nonprofit human and animal welfare branded services. It is a catchphrase meaning “having exceptional talent or natural ability.” Here at Madalion Foundation, Gifted Hands is the cornerstone for the work we do.

We strive to help every person tap in and develop the skills needed to excel in a chosen profession by connecting them to meaningful work-study experiences that lead to gainful employment.

Gifted Hands services focus on providing education, apprenticeship training, certification, and volunteer services to ensure people (human services) and pets (animal services) receive need-based care services to thrive in the community.
