Great Nonprofits Reviews

5 stars. I enjoy assisting with OSOT AM. On Thursday I help assemble the 1728 cubic inches of boxes for the troops. I is great to have a group of guys who work together so well to complete this task in about 1-2 hours. These are then ready for another group to actually fill the boxes on Saturday. After completing this task, I then go to the other warehouse to help make various kits that will go...

5 stars. I have been involved in soliciting equipment, packaging and shipping equipment to Central America. I had an opportunity a couple of months ago to host a fire chief and captain from the City of Fernanduez, San Louis Potosi, MX. What an awesome, gratifying experience. Gear Up Foundation's commitment to honor those that perished at on 9-11 and those that are dying every week due to their ...

5 stars. I am a board member for Animal-Kind International so I know first hand what great work we do with our partner organizations in countries with very limited financial resources. The great thing is our organization is so transparent you can see everything we do. And 100% of your donation goes directly to one of our partners of your choice. We have no overhead. That means more spay and neu...

5 stars. It must be nearly ten years since I came across Sandy Gottstein and Vaccination News.
My son was injured by vaccines and his life destroyed. He was 15 when they gave him MMR, polio and diphtheria / tetanus. One month ealrier his head teacher told me he was university 'material' and could look forward to an interesting future. That was 19 years ago. Once I discovered that vaccines were i...

5 stars. To Whom It May Concern:

I'm been impressed with the professionalism shown by the Free Arts organization in general. I've had some involvement with a few non-profits and my observations are as follows: 1) They are often run by the 'seat of their pants' - not having clearly defined purpose or goals - and "re-acting" as opposed to "pro-acting;" OR 2) The founders or those in charge do not ...

5 stars. In the past five years, I've watched the MHVI start with only a dream to end homelessness for veterans in the city of Milwaukee, and now they've helped hundreds of homeless and low-income veterans find shelter, food, clothing, furniture, and VA benefits. They are an impressive organization that deserves a lot of credit for helping to end homelessness for veterans in the city of Milwaukee.

5 stars. For 3 years as a volunteer bookkeeper for this God-inspired organization, I have witnessed a real heart for serving people without hope. People have been rescued from dire situations in which where they had no place to turn. They have been prayed with and heard the beautiful gospel message of Jesus Christ. Since my initial involvement, I have seen God multiply the territory and efforts...

5 stars. Crown Jewel Club is in so many ways such a simple program. A bunch of really neat caring people coming together to brighten and enhance the lives of 5th grade at-risk girls. Their methods seem so obvious to those of us who came from a more middle class background. Imagine a group of young girls getting so much out of a lesson on meeting new people, or how to set a table and use a knife...

5 stars. I have know Kris for over 20+ years, she is gracious, kind, and an incredibly thoughtful person when it comes to helping people and animals. She has dedicated herself to love and service of rescue animals. She has generously given her time and energy to help stop the animal abuse that happens all too often here in Southern California. I am very fortunate to have met Kris and share this...

5 stars. I am overwhelmed by the work that the Florida Exotic Bird Sanctuary does. Never have I seen so much compassion and love devoted to such a wonderful cause. The birds that come to this sanctuary need tons of attention, love, and caring and they ALL get just that. It's amazing! So many of these birds would never have had an opportunity to live a happy, healthy, quality life of just 'being...

5 stars. The Crown Jewel Club is an amazing organization that truly succeeds in their mission. They strive to give 5th grade girls the self esteem and self confidence they need to succeed in life. And that is exactly what they do. When you walk in the classroom on the first day these girls are shy and quiet. By the time the last session rolls around they are just dying to talk to you and show o...

5 stars. We have year after year, payed tribute to those who perished on 9/11 and those rescuers that answered the call on that tragic day, through our 9/11 memorial events and through out the programs that involved ceremonies on 9/11 overseas performed by Fire Departments in 7 countries in Latin America. Also teaching kids fire Prevention in Ecuador, and teaching community service values and t...

5 stars. Over the past 17 years, I have been affiliated with the Alzheimers Family Day Center as a sole caregiver for my aging mother who suffered from Alzheimers and then as a volunteer. While my mther was a participant, she received state-of-the-art care from an outstanding staff thoroughly trained in the field of dementia. She enjoyed participating in many activities that the Center offered....

5 stars. My wonderful sister-in-law is a 41 year dynamo living with CF. She also happens to be one of CF Roundtable's writers . The articles in CF Roundtable are insightful, humorous, informative, and eye-opening about living life to the fullest with CF.

5 stars. The Living Planet Aquarium is a great place to learn about the variety of ecosytems in our world. The staff is well trained to share their knowledge about the collection at the Aquarium. They also strive to create a more hands-on experience for visitors of all ages. There is always something to do or see that will add value to your visit, whether its feeding the stingrays or meeting th...

5 stars. This organization reaches into the souls of it's members and those who it serves. I have found peace with my son's service through the various activities it has offered. The family resource meetings, the packaging and sorting for the boxes, the volunteering for "Rockin for the Troops" are just a few events that have helped me. My son is serving his 24th month of deployment and I have g...

5 stars. One of my good friends works for this organization and the care which she and other members of this organization show toward their clients is mind boggling. This organization does a great job of empowering people with disabilities.

5 stars. I selected Donor because although I'm the spouse of one of the volunteers, I have only personally donated funds and supplies that were needed over the past few years.

My donations may seem small in scale, but I know that they very much impact the facility and the volunteers that use them in a large positive manner. I know this because whatever that supply item is, that's one less item ...

5 stars. PLEN help me to recognize the potential in myself to go above and beyond to achieve my goals. They opened my eyes to the inner workings of Washington DC and offered me an opportunity I would have never received if it were not for this amazing organization. I met alumni who cared about me and my goals and have made friendships for life.

5 stars. LostNmissing came in to my life when I most needed the support of someone. Not only did they take their time to listen to me but they also went above and beyond their call of duty to help and assist in spreading the word of my missing son Angel "Ito" Garcia missing status amoung other services. LostNmissing provided all the needed materials to mark the one year anniversary of my son's ...
