Vision and Missions

“Impact For Peace” is set up with the hope to gather enthusiastic volunteers from all walks of life and around the world to work for the empowerment of Child and Woman’s rights.  Based in Hong Kong, we take special advantage of the access to a variety of talents and professionals and wish to turn them into re-distributable human resources for overseas NGOs’ use. Initially we would pioneer projects to enhance education opportunity in the Central Asia region because we believe it is the key to uplifting long-term standard of living in this neediest region.

We aim to establish a close working tie with Central Asian medium-to-small scale NGOs on the following project initiatives:

1.      Family and children sponsorship program

2.      Scholarship scheme for talented students

3.      Micro-finance loan

4.      Vocational training for women

Basically the projects would be realized by human potential re-distributed from wherever the excess is, through:

1.      Service learning students’ summer camps that put university students’ potential into use abroad

2.      A talents matching platform that bridges aspiring individuals or those in sabbatical or retirement with overseas NGOs where their talents are most coveted

3.      Coordination of and fundraising for projects in joint effort with overseas NGOs

Striving to be accountable to our supporters, we believe it is utmost important to ensure our partnering overseas organizations are reliable.  Therefore we only work with those we have garnered thorough understanding after careful investigation.  Through time, we hope to translate our accumulated experience into an archive that documents the successful stories and contacts of those often underpublicized overseas medium-to-small size NGOs.  The archive will intend to serve worldwide volunteers-to-be who are looking for meaningful voluntary experience with true impacts in the underprivileged worlds, especially in Central Asia.  Travel with a reason to make a difference!

By the way, if you have ever volunteered outside your home countries and have a wonderful and worthy experience, please do share with us !  Because words of mouth would be very helpful for us to identify the really reliable and effective organizations to match with our enthusiastic and warm-hearted volunteers, or even special project funding!  No matter where the NGOs are located and serving, all are welcome!!
