Causes: Education, Scholarships, Scholarships & Student Financial Aid
Mission: HIFF is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to supporting students where it counts. We believe that funding partnered with emotional support create the foundation for lifelong success. The HIFF student community is comprised of recipients of our “Herb it Forward” Scholarship Program. The HIF scholarship is given to students who despite extreme challenges in their past are hardworking, motivated and driven to make a difference in their communities. We are committed to maintaining a community of support for HIF scholars through their academic careers and beyond. HIFF facilitates funded activities that keep students engaged through educational speakers, character building exercises, camps, send-offs, and most importantly the opportunity to build lasting relationships with like-minded students. HIFF is weaving together a community that the students feel connected to, can count on, and in which they will continue to pay it forward.
