Highland Support Project is an organization truly passionate about creating transformational change. I volunteered with HSP on a trip to Guatemala in 2009 and was blown away by the wealth of knowledge staff members had, the genuine relationships the organization had formed with people in partner countries, and the vision HSP had for both their volunteers and the communities they visited. I was so impressed that, when looking for a meaningful internship experience the following year, I immediately thought of Highland Support. I wanted to be a part of a goal-oriented organization with genuine values and transformative vision. HSP embodied all of these qualities and many, many more. My love for HSP and my belief that it is one of the rare, empowering agents of social change, have not wavered. The Highland Support experience is one that takes volunteers across geographic, socioeconomic, and cultural borders and truly changes the lives of everyone involved.
