My own journey into this work began when I was fifteen years old on my first missions trip.
I saw real needs. Real people. Real challenges. No filters. No distance. That experience shaped how I see the world and clarified something early. My life would be connected to work that helps people. I did not yet know how it would look, but I knew it would be part of my calling.
From that point forward, serving others was not an event. It became part of how I approached life, leadership, and business.
For over 30 years, HBI has been involved in people development, leadership, and community work across the United States and in more than a dozen countries. From inner cities to international projects, the focus has remained the same. Strengthen people. Strengthen families. Strengthen communities.
Today, HBI Legacy carries that original heart forward
with a growing global vision.
