Meet OUR TEAM

"I have learned that people are people. Just like us, people who are homeless come from all walks of life, all different faith backgrounds and cultures. I have also seen the systemic injustice that contributes to homelessness. Many people who are homeless were raised in poverty and their safety net is much smaller than mine. One of the missions of The Human Impact is using not just our time but our network for good."

"There is so much more about all of us that is alike than different, but we’ll never discover that until we’re willing to connect in meaningful ways. I’m so grateful for the work of The Human Impact in making those connections and forging friendships with those who are often forgotten and marginalized, reminding them of our common thread….that we are all valued and deeply cared for by a loving God."

"Jesus told us whenever we actively love those who are hurting we are actively loving Him. I am drawn to those who represent Jesus in the midst of their pain. I love to learn about their life and am overjoyed when they invite me into their journey. I'm drawn by The Human Impact's simple but profound way of being obedient to Christ; by offering ourselves freely and fully to those whom He treasures."

"My life is an intricate story of God’s faithfulness and His unwavering love and care. I want every single person to deeply know that same love and experience that intimate relationship with our Creator. I am humbled to be part of an organization that befriends and values the life of those often overlooked, those created in the imago Dei."

"For me telling the stories of our friends on the street is important because everyone matters. Everyone has value and something to tell us. My vision for storytelling is to help provide a glimpse into what life on the streets is like. I hope to go beyond the stereotypes and assumptions many of us have about people who are unhoused and show aspects of their lives and experiences that are often hidden from the general public."

"Our friends without homes relate to us more than we think. They also desire friendship, love, and purpose in the midst of where they are. THI has challenged me to live out and take action on how to love others the way Jesus would. When we live this out, we become awakened to the idea that the ones we serve are actually the ones who change and impact our lives. "

"I have always been drawn to walking alongside people through life's toughest moments, especially if there is no one else there beside them. I believe we never look more like Christ than we are celebrating with people in times of joy and grieving with them in times of despair. There is nothing quite as beautiful as experiencing God's Withness in the midst of pain and I don't know of an organization doing that better than The Human Impact."

THI see hope in those who feel hopeless and for me, that means a lot. They see no borders, but when there is they want to bridge that gap and build intentional relationships to cross over. As humans we struggle and oftentimes feel misunderstood. THI is more than an organization, it's a family to be there for each other and to be there for those who feel misunderstood and alone.

"In God's design, we are all meant to be in community. We weren't made to be alone. The Human Impact embraces that and makes that the core of what we do. It's a beautiful thing to be able to walk alongside someone through the highs and lows of life, and we get to do that with our friends on the streets through THI."

"This work gives us the opportunity to obey what God says in Matthew 25:40. What better a job where I can walk in obedience and learn how to be a better friend every day!? I'm excited to explore new perspectives on life, learn from different experiences, listen, and learn how to become a better friend."

"When I learned about The Human Impact's work and its relationship-first model, I wanted to be apart of it. Through working with them, I am learning to see people where they are without trying to fix them. This work is so rewarding and I'm so grateful to be apart of it. "
