Professionals In Action (PIA) mobilizes volunteers with professional skills to complete short term pro-bono projects for Hope for New York affiliates serving the poor and marginalized. PIA maximizes the lasting impact volunteers can bring to these organizations by utilizing their specialized skill sets, and a chance for them to meet other professionals in the industry.

How PIA Works

Potential volunteers complete the PIA application identifying their professional skills and expertise. Hope for New York staff then match volunteers with pro-bono projects that leverage their unique skills. Projects are usually 1-3 months in duration, with a volunteer commitment of 2-3 hours per week.
