How we work?
Technology & Innovation
Partnering with Local Communities
We are working to build relationships with different organization to give homeschoolers and public schooled students access to newest technology. We want to provide parents, and students with programs and services to improve learning and decision-making.
Partnering with other organizations that bring about change is crucial. Collaboration allow us to pool our resources, expertise, and networks, amplifying our collective impact. By joining forces, we can tackle larger and more complex issues, increasing our chances of success. By working together, we can raise awareness, mobilize support, and create a united front for change. Through shared knowledge and resources, we can build long-lasting solutions that have a lasting impact on the communities we serve.
In today's fast-paced world, homeschooling has become an increasingly popular choice for families seeking alternative education options. However, one of the challenges that homeschool families often face is accessing information about available resources. Sharing information about these resources is crucial as it enables homeschool families to make informed decisions and provide their children with a well-rounded education. Disseminating information about resources can greatly enhance the homeschooling experience and allow families to tap into a wide range of tools and opportunities that can supplement their curriculum and cater to their children's individual needs. By actively sharing information, the homeschool community can create a supportive network where families can learn from each other and thrive in their educational journey.
At Enrichment 4 Happiness & Harmony Inc, the dynamic volunteer staff is comprised of a culturally diverse leadership team from multiple career fields and educational backgrounds. The team is very passionate about addressing social issues that have a negative effect on society by dedicating their time and energy to be part of the solution. We affect change by bringing together solutions, expertise, funding sources and collaborative partnerships.
To make a lasting impact, we know that we must actively engage and include the homeschool community in decision making about what is desired. We are continually assessing needs in a forever evolving and changing climate.
