About
MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDERS: Harry C. Dunn, III and Michelle D. Dunn
After more than four years of extensive research, collaboration, planning and dogged determination, we feel blessed to begin to move the HIM By HER Foundation, Inc. (HBHF) programs toward operation. We both share a passion for educating youth and those marginalized, and for providing opportunities to improve the chances of success for those in the community. We are humbled by the community and financial support received so far by HBHF, and hope we can count on your continued and even greater support as we move along, whether that be in the form of volunteering, financial contributions, collaborations and others. We believe that if you limit a person’s excuses and give them an opportunity, you are helping improve their chances for success in life. Please keep HBHF in your prayers and help us to achieve a better world!

Our Mission
The mission of HIM By HER Foundation, Inc. (“HBHF”) is to improve the lives and life
trajectories of the underserved, marginalized and others, by helping organizations and
individuals to establish, build and implement their own innovative and sustainable programs and
business entities for economic, social and civic betterment. HIM By HER” stands for Helping to
Improve Mankind By Healing Every Race.


Our Vision
The vision of HIM By HER Foundation, Inc. is to use its expertise and decade of experience to help others establish and implement their own programs and business entities that align with HBHF’s mission.
“HIM By HER” assisted the City and State’s growing marginalized populations with our established, planned, and structured approach to job training, case management, and life-enhancing skills, resulting in greater workforce competence, increased motivation, entrepreneurship opportunities, and overall improvement in life and work success. Each participant gained self-esteem, while each potential employer could acquire a great employee with higher productivity and profitability.
Although training programs might have been beneficial at any time during a person’s life, our programs focused on a young person’s typical highest risk period, the final six to twenty-four months of their post-secondary education. In addition to providing actual, community-based experience for people in school, those recently separated from school, or those identified as youth at risk, HIM By HER programs offered an opportunity to educate local employers about the benefits and risks of employing our most at-risk community members, paving the way for greater understanding and collaboration between the new workforce and the private sector.
Integrating participants into the workplace prior to their completion of the program also helped with the development of certain “soft skills” needed to maintain employment or start their own businesses. For example, in the controlled environment of a program, trainees learned the difference between appropriate interpersonal skills needed in the community and workplace. Participants observed firsthand the type of work ethic required in the workforce to avoid re-incarceration in the future.
