  • Helps International (HINT)'s Mission Statement

    To improve the social and economic well-being and health of the poor and under privileged in our society through education, skill development and job creation. We seek to accomplish this mission in the communities in which we work through four main areas which include access and training on Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), enabling poor children to still have a good education, improving the health of the poor and helping to reduce the spread of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, empowering poor adults through micro credits and training, and helping with community development projects such as clean drinking water and electricity.
