Beginning in 2008, The Hamels Foundation has been dedicated to bringing an end to extreme poverty and hardship endured by lack of educational support.
 Co-founded by Cole and Heidi Hamels, The Hamels Foundation has a dual mission to provide support for quality education in the United States and establish a school in Malawi, Africa. The Hamels Foundation is dedicated to enriching the lives of children and giving them the tools to achieve their goals. The Hamels Foundation takes a community-based approach to education by providing assistance to inner-city schools in the United States, including but not limited to, providing stimulating learning environments, high-quality educational programs, and necessary provisions to promote learning. 
The Hamels Foundation's commitment extends globally to Malawi, Africa, where they will begin building a boarding school for girls in July, 2009. Malawi is one of the poorest, most impoverished nations in the world with an overwhelming HIV and AIDS epidemic. The Hamels Foundation's school will offer critical intervention to young women and girls in Malawi. Through female empowerment, education and AIDS awareness programs, The Hamels Foundation aims to break the cycle of disease and poverty and improve the futures of its students.
