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

Hi-Hope is actively looking for corporate groups interested in getting their workforce engaged in volunteerism and community building. We have had a great deal of success with corporate groups representing a variety of industries, including, but not limited to, construction, HVAC, banking, retail, energy, food and food service, health, automotive, and manufacturing. Typical corporate volunteer events follow one of three models:

1. Host a small group: Welcome a small group of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities to your place of work to meet your staff and learn about what you do. These visits are fully supported by Hi-Hope Center staff and usually last between 1 to 2 hours.

2. Visit a Hi-Hope location (throughout Gwinnett County) for infrastructure or beautification projects: A group of your staff visit our main campus in Lawrenceville or one of our group homes for a team project. Past examples include landscaping, painting, small structure construction, demolition, furniture moving, vehicle cleaning and maintenance, gardening, house deep cleaning, organization, etc. These projects vary in length from 2 to 6 hours.

3. Visit Hi-Hope's main campus for an integrated, social activity. These activities happen regularly and vary in length between 2 and 4 hours. Your team will work directly with our Volunteer Coordinator to create a fun activity that can be done with the individuals we support. Examples include holiday card and cookie decorating, season arts & crafts, light exercise activities, birthday parties, dances, cookouts, movies, etc. Hi-Hope staff fully support the activity so that volunteers can relax and have fun with our folks.

Consider corporate engagement with Hi-Hope. It is a great team building opportunity and it establishes your company as a leader in the community. We work with you to make it the best possible experience for everyone involved. Hope to hear from you soon!

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.
