With the community based approach thoroughly integrated into all of the work FSD does, they are able to support environmentally friendly projects that actually make a difference and can be sustained by the communities they work with.

High Quality Organization. I support FSD through the work of Projects of Hope (www.projectsofhope.org), an organization that assists rural Kenyans affected by AIDS/HIV, through anti-poverty initiatives, education, health care, housing and micro-finance. Very worthy organization.
The Great!
- I've seen the results of this organization in... Touching rural Kenyans lives; providing health care, education, a sense of dignity,self worth, and empowerment for women. Many of the people served have been stigmatized and out-cast, as a result of having been affected by AIDS/HIV.
- What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is... Highly efficient use of funds. Dollars get to the people in need and make a tremendous difference in their lives. Confidence that funds make it to where they are intended.

I was a Volunteer & I was a clinical assistant at a small public hospital in rural Kenya.

As a young professional looking for a career change, FSD enabled me to spend time in a medical setting in Kenya, practicing public health techniques, basic nursing care, and learning a host of skills that I still use today in my public health and nursing life. By introducing me to incredible people (teachers, nurses, mothers) in Kenya, by supporting me personally and professionally, and by creating and implementing a structured process that allowed me to volunteer successfully and purposefully, FSD truly changed my path.

The Great!
- The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... motivated, strong, and capable individuals, all of whom I was lucky to learn from and grow with.
- If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... do a lot of good in the world, by enabling others to volunteer and creating funding sources for grassroots organizations to fund themselves.
Ways to make it better!
- My experience would have been better if... it were longer.
