I have volunteered several times with Hearts of Empowerment over the past couple years.

I had a blast giving back to the community. We were able to get our hands dirty and help out a passionate farmer on historic grounds. It was awesome to be with a group of other volunteers representing Hearts of Empowerment. From the t-shirt, to the coffee, to cool off station, everything was well thought out and I enjoyed the experience.

I had seen the work of Hearts on social media and was so interested in their work.

I felt so welcomed and could see the direct impact we had on the community. Everyone at Hearts is so fun, smart and really kind. I wish my schedule allowed me to volunteer more often but it’s an organization I’d recommend anyone make the time and space for. Their work is intentional and exciting and I can’t wait to see what else they have in store for the community!

I had the pleasure of volunteering with this awesome group of people where we dropped off groceries and supplies to Seabury at Friendship Terrace Senior Living Center during the start of COVID-19. I had a couple plans to volunteer with this group in the past, but due to COVID-19 those events were cancelled, so I was excited when they reached out about this new campaign they were taking on. They also did a great job ensuring everyone was safe and abiding to the CDC guidelines by wearing a mask, gloves and maintaining a 6 feet distance to the best of our abilities. I look forward to volunteering with them in the future! :)

Where do I start. I’ve never met a greater group of young adults driven to make a change in the community as this organization. I partnered up with them as an athletic partner to raise money for this caring charity while preparing for IronMan. Not only has it been a delight raising money for them while they serve our local community, but they have been extremely supportive in my efforts of sharing my personal life story. It has been a pleasure and blessing working with these fine people who I admire as role models in our community.

My nonprofit, Empowered Mums, partnered up with Hearts of Empowerment earlier this year to launch our "For Mums We Stand" campaign where we assisted single mothers in our community with groceries whom had been affected by COVID. In a total of 12 weeks, we assisted 93 mothers, something I would've never been able to do as a new nonprofit who is a one woman team.
Every single Sunday their CEO, Correy Facciane, and executive members would help purchase and deliver groceries. That speaks volumes of how much this cause meant to them!
The marketing and fundraising skills are something unlike I've ever seen before, upmost professional in every single way.
If you're a nonprofit looking for drivers with a lot of passion behind the people, who also care about your cause has much as you do, Hearts of Empowerment is who you need to partner up with!
If you're a donor seeking a reputable nonprofit, this is it seek no further. Hearts of Empowerment cares tremendously about their community and they all choose to do this every single day with smiles and gratitude for being a part of the change we need in this world.
