“We have provided millions of jobs for the hard to employ, students putting themselves through school, and parents that need another income source—often with the flexible hours they require. These jobs have made a huge difference to thousands of lives.

Impact Sourcing is a win for companies that have access to a motivated workforce and also for the communities where jobs are created.”
