HUMANITARIAN
DEVELOPMENT

Humanitarian Development

One of the core beliefs of HOPE’S IN is that serving others creates a lifetime of purpose.

Each generation has a chance to leave the world a little better than when they were born into it. We believe that we can raise a generation of compassionate and bold leaders through giving to others.

HOPE’S IN invests in the next generation of humanitarian leaders through our Service Learning Exchange programs to Guatemala, our HOPE’S INternship program and through the Hope’s In Academy. Each program uniquely gives students access to tools that will change the world and mentorship from our board. 

HOPE’S IN is dedicated to impacting and empowering the Guatemala City garbage dump communities and developing the next generation of humanitarian leaders.
