...and see below for other ways Hands can help:
educational materials
Hands can deliver schoolbooks, supplies, and related educational materials to communities in need. We work with established aid groups, such such as Boaters for Books, to deliver books and educational materials to needy coastal communities.
teaching
The Hands crew has the credentials to teach English and entrepreneurship (Organizations such as Making Cents provide a curriculum of entrepreneurship for developing countries). Hands's Web development and marketing skills are useful additions to a curriculum of entrepreneurship.
healthcare help
Hands can deliver medical personnel and supplies to remote coastal communities, and host medical professionals "on scene" while charitable work is being performed. Potential partners for Hands include International Medical Volunteers and True North Missions.
girls' empowerment
Research shows that helping girls to learn and prosper in a community lifts the entire community. The YWCA is an organization with branches throughout the world that we can support with our teaching, marketing, and Web development skills.
conservation work
Many coastal environments are changing and there are organizations such as Ocean Conservancy that we can assist in monitoring and providing the means to track and publicize changes taking place.
