ORGANIZATION: Hi-Hope Service Center

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 9 people are interested

Do you have time to socialize with our folks between 9:30am and 11:30am or 12:30pm and 1:30pm? We love hosting volunteers with limited free time. Just think of a quick and easy activity - Bingo, drawing, storytellling, games, etc. - and bring the supplies and we will make it happen. The important thing here is relationship building - are a less concerned with the activity and more focused on letting you meet some of the amazing individuals we support during the week. Flexibility is a must and kindness will get you far.

Interested, but unsure or have questions?

Perfect. Just give shoot Nick and email at nreynolds@hihopecenter.org and he will take good care of you.

About Hi-Hope Service Center

Mission Statement

Hi-Hope Service Center supports adults with developmental disabilities by building and sustaining individual independence.

Description

In 1960 the parents of six young students from Gwinnett County founded one of the first organizations in Georgia to teach children with intellectual disabilities. Under the capable leadership of Mrs.Vinie Lowry and support from many parents and the greater Gwinnett Community construction of a special needs school was completed in 1970. A special needs preschool was added subsequently. In the late 1990’s when all student programs, including the pre-school program, were integrated into the public schools, Hi-Hope became an adult only program.

Today, Hi-Hope Center carries on the founders' legacy of caring and innovation by supporting adults with developmental disabilities by building and sustaining their independence.
