Glance Gwinnett graduate, Manny Aviles, was inspired to get engaged
in his community when he visited Hi-Hope Service Center with his
Glance group. After recognizing a need, Manny collaborated with his
employer, Cintas Corporation, and collectively donated 12 boxes of
garments and shoes to Hi-Hope.
"They were thrilled and happy to accept it," said Aviles,
"I told [Hi-Hope] I would like to engage my community service
volunteers at work with their organization."
Hi-Hope strives to cultivate community for adults with developmental disabilities
by connecting them with integrated opportunities for learning, work,
and leisure. Click here
