Last year, volunteers donated over 5,000 hours of their time to projects and associated fund raisers run by Team H.I.P. Many volunteers came from corporations, small businesses and family members. These volunteers simply felt a strong calling to help in any way they could. Hundreds of individuals and organizations donated money or expertise (and in many cases, both!) to help High Impact Projects meet the needs of our world's less fortunate.
This collaboration of voluteers is made up of E.W.B. & B.2.R. members helping build an orphanage in Muhororo, Rwanda. Without this facility many of these children would still be living in the jungle on their own, as they were discovered.

Becoming a volunteer is a special calling that each individual posseses, however, not all of us heed the call for various reasons. Team H.I.P. welcomes volunteers who lend time and/or expertise to help the impoverished. It doesn't take long to see how even a small amount of volunteering time will quickly become one of the richest and most rewarding endeavors experienced in a lifetime. There is no need for travel - all of this can be accomplished here in your community!
High Impact Projects is passionate about helping those who are the most impoverished, such as orphans and widows without hope of a future. These people try to live in the harshest conditions that are forced upon them (moslty due to war). These conditions leave many, many homeless without much of a future beyond refugee camps or perhaps a small mud hut with little or no food or clothing. Their lives are more than turned upside down. For any one of us to spare our time, energy, and/or donations towards their hope of a brighter tomorrow helps to rebuild their lives a little at a time. However, for any of us to passionately devote our abilities to their hopes and needs increases their futures on a greater scale then we can measure. If you can donate anything, please donate your time. The world needs volunteers.
