Project Impact South Bend is committed to developing meaningful
employment opportunities for women and men of scars. It is our aim to organize, train and facilitate transformational differences
in the lives of individuals, families, organizations and inner-city neighborhoods. We are not content with minimal success,
with just a few people in the inner-city poor neighborhoods doing well while most remain unfulfilled, unproductive and unrewarded.
Project Impact South Bend intent is to facilitate substantive improvement in the lives of the majority of the people
in certain inner-city neighborhoods. We are seeking now to substantially enhance the development of economic alternatives
for the high risk individuals on the streets. We have an offering, which creates opportunities for skills-building, income
generation, wealth creation and community-building in debilitated communities.
