nDelivering this global education venture is impossible without excellent teachers and school leaders, innovative programs, expertise from all of those inspired to create a better world for children, especially those who live in poverty nationally and internationally.

Corporate support is being sought to create a business/education partnership prototype that can be replicated globally by building skills, growing capacity, and enabling sustainable economies in any indigenous setting.The objective is to exchange technological, technocratic, and educational knowledge for greater understanding of the indigenous people – in all cultures, ideologies, and strengths.This exchange will be launched in the Spring of 2008 with a key stakeholder conference in Houston, TX, home of HIPIE.

HIPIE is the division of the Haberman Educational Foundation,Inc. devoted to extending the mission of improving the educational opportunities for children and youth in poverty to schools and preparatory institutions internationally. To achieve this goal, HIPIE will offer expertise to:
