With our diverse teams formed from people of all backgrounds we are able implement a very holistic approach to development using rapid evaluation to ensure community needs are being met. Every project HELP executes is done in collaboration with a local partnership in-country. HELP partnerships include international and domestic NGOs, local governments, schools, hospitals, health clinics, community leaders, and other social entrepreneurs. Our mulit-facited approach to development allows us to facilitate projects catering to a wider range of fields and disciplines . In any given country, HELP International develops , executes, and monitors grass-root projects in areas related to public health promotion, health campaigns and outreaches, medical support, micro-business mentoring, income generating activities, English teaching, teacher trainings, orphanage support, at-risk youth programs, female empowerment, agriculture, etc. Our unique model allows college-aged volunteers, interns, and working young professionals to contribute and catalyze the efforts of local partners on the ground. HELP International aims to assist relatively inexperienced and mostly academically trained participants to become social entrepreneurs who understand the complexities of poverty. Our social entrepreneurs have gone on to be a force of change in everything from the non-profit sector, to public office, the armed forces and even the corporate world.
