I was a General Member of the Public & Contributor, visitor to field offices and headquarters
Post public compliment
I like to personally check out an organization before contributing - and since I live near the WCDO headquarters and have seen firsthand how hard they work to limit overhead and maximize the amount of funds getting out to clients around the world - this is an eyewitness vote of confidence in them. When visiting in Africa I spent time at their regional headquarters and met staff from around the world that work for the organization. Several friends of mine are in the field working for WCDO and I have been impressed by the cultural sensitivity they bring to their work, and their amazing energy. WCDO has had staff in Haiti for many years and can "put to work" the money you donate, and do so today.

The Great!
- I've seen the results of this organization in... both North America and Africa
- What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is... hard working staff, low overhead
- The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were... highly capable, well trained, energetic
- If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could... wow, excellent question - scale up some key initiatives
Ways to make it better!
- My experience would have been better if... they provided more informal video updates about the work
- If I ran this organization, I would... use low cost digital media to get the word out about the organization
- In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are... telling their story to enough people to actually build capacity into the organization
- One thing I'd also say is that... there are many great organizations, do your homework, get involved, and become a regular contributor
