In Our Unity
Hope Is Where the Heart Is
Since 2008, IOU(In Our Unity), a non-profit organization, has been volunteering all across the Bay Area as a non-profit organization. Split into five divisions, high schoolers across the bay have volunteered and donated to organizations mainly the Santa Clara City Library Foundation and Friends, volunteering for the Central Library's monthly book sales and annually donating money to support the organization through recycling. Additionally, IOU works with CityTeam to help neighbors in need and donating books to support the education of children.
Activities
In Our Unity is achieving more with our initiatives than ever before. We work on many exciting projects to help improve the lives of others, and are very proud of the progress we continue to make. Learn more about what we do, who we help, and how we work every day to promote positive change.
We gather plastic bottles, glass bottles, and cans that we deposit at a recycling center two to three times a year.
